Answer:
a. P(X ≤ 5) = 0.999
b. P(X > λ+λ) = P(X > 2) = 0.080
Step-by-step explanation:
We model this randome variable with a Poisson distribution, with parameter λ=1.
We have to calculate, using this distribution, P(X ≤ 5).
The probability of k pipeline failures can be calculated with the following equation:
Then, we can calculate P(X ≤ 5) as:
The standard deviation of the Poisson deistribution is equal to its parameter λ=1, so the probability that X exceeds its mean value by more than one standard deviation (X>1+1=2) can be calculated as:
Answer:
99% Confidence interval: (0.185,0.375)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Sample size, n = 150
Number of cars that have faulty catalytic converters, x = 42
99% Confidence interval:
Putting the values, we get:
The 99% confidence interval for the true proportion of new cars with faulty catalytic converters is (0.185,0.375)
