Suppose that, for every lot of 100 computer chips a company produces, an average of 1.4 are defective. Another company buys many

lots of these chips at a time, from which one lot is selected randomly and tested for defects. If the tested lot contains more than three defects, the buyer will reject all the lots sent in that batch. What is the probability that the buyer will accept the lots?Assume that the defects per lot are Poisson distributed.Round your answer to 4 decimal places.The tolerance is +/- 0.0005.

Answer:

0.1665

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that on an average 1.4 are defective per 100 computer chips

If the tested lot contains more than three defects, the buyer will reject all the lots sent in that batch.

Let X be the no of defective items in 100 chips

X is Poisson with mean =1.4

i.e. the probability that the buyer will accept the lots

=P(X\geq 3)\\\\=0.16651

Answer is 0.1665

There were 340,000 cattle placed on feed

How many of the 340,000 cattle placed on feed were between 700 and 799 pounds?

Given the fraction of total cattle for 700 - 799 pounds is 2/5

Let x be the number of cattle between 700 - 799 pounds

We make a proportion using the fraction

\frac{2}{5} = \frac{x}{340,000}

Cross multiply it and solve for x

340000* 2 = 5x

680000 = 5x

Divide by 5 on both sides

So x= 136,000

There were 136,000 cattle between 700 and 799 pounds

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

\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{42}{150} = 0.28

99% Confidence interval:

\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.01} = \pm 2.58

Putting the values, we get:

0.28\pm 2.58(\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{150}}) = 0.28\pm 0.095\\\\=(0.185,0.375)

The​ 99% confidence interval for the true proportion of new cars with faulty catalytic converters is​ (0.185,0.375)
