Dell Computers receives large shipments of microprocessors (chips) from Intel Corp. It must try to ensure that the proportion of defective chips is small and has contracted to keep the proportion of defective chips at 5% or less. Suppose that Dell tests 25 chips (with replacement) out of a shipment of thousands.
a) What is the probability of obtaining at least three defects in the sample, if the entire shipment has 5% defectives? If a sample results in at least three defects, does it appear that Intel has provided a shipment which is consistent with the contract? Briefly explain, using the calculated probability.
b) For the shipment described in part a, find the expected number of sampled chips that are defective and the standard deviation of the number of sampled chips that are defective.
c) Suppose that 20% of the entire shipment is defective. What is the probability that more than 17 chips in the sample are good (not defective)?​

Answers

Answer 1

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that:

a) 0.1271 = 12.71% probability of obtaining at least three defects in the sample, if the entire shipment has 5% defectives. 5% defective is between 1 and 2 defects, but since this probability is more than the unlikely threshold 5%, more than 2 defects could still mean that Intel has provided a shipment which is consistent with the contract.

b) The mean is of 1.25 defective chips and the standard deviation is of 1.09 defective chips.

c) 0.8908 = 89.08% probability that more than 17 chips in the sample are good.

For each chip, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a chip being defective is independent of any other chip, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

x is the number of successes. n is the number of trials. p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

25 chips are tested, thus, [tex]n = 25[/tex].

Item a:

Supposing 5% defective, we have that [tex]p = 0.05[/tex].

The probability is:

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{25,0}.(0.05)^{0}.(0.95)^{25} = 0.2774[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{25,1}.(0.05)^{1}.(0.95)^{24} = 0.3650[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{25,2}.(0.05)^{2}.(0.95)^{23} = 0.2305[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.2774 + 0.3650 + 0.2305 = 0.8729[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3) = 1 - 0.8729 = 0.1271[/tex]

0.1271 = 12.71% probability of obtaining at least three defects in the sample, if the entire shipment has 5% defectives. 5% defective is between 1 and 2 defects, but since this probability is more than the unlikely threshold 5%, more than 2 defects could still mean that Intel has provided a shipment which is consistent with the contract.

Item b:

The mean is:

[tex]E(X) = np = 25(0.05) = 1.25[/tex]

The standard deviation is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1 - p)} = \sqrt{25(0.05)(0.95)} = 1.09[/tex]

The mean is of 1.25 defective chips and the standard deviation is of 1.09 defective chips.

Item c:

20% are defective, so 80% are good, which means that [tex]p = 0.8[/tex]

The probability is:

[tex]P(X > 17) = P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20) + P(X = 21) + P(X = 22) + P(X = 23) + P(X = 24) + P(X = 25)[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 18) = C_{25,18}.(0.8)^{18}.(0.2)^{7} = 0.1108[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 19) = C_{25,19}.(0.8)^{19}.(0.2)^{6} = 0.1633[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 20) = C_{25,20}.(0.8)^{20}.(0.2)^{5} = 0.1960[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 21) = C_{25,21}.(0.8)^{21}.(0.2)^{4} = 0.1867[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 22) = C_{25,22}.(0.8)^{22}.(0.2)^{3} = 0.1358[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 23) = C_{25,23}.(0.8)^{23}.(0.2)^{2} = 0.0708[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 24) = C_{25,24}.(0.8)^{24}.(0.2)^{1} = 0.0236[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 25) = C_{25,25}.(0.8)^{25}.(0.2)^{0} = 0.0038[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(X > 17) = P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20) + P(X = 21) + P(X = 22) + P(X = 23) + P(X = 24) + P(X = 25) = 0.1108 + 0.1633 + 0.1960 + 0.1867 + 0.1358 + 0.0708 + 0.0236 + 0.0038 = 0.8908[/tex]

0.8908 = 89.08% probability that more than 17 chips in the sample are good.

Answers

G=Z6×Z2G=Z6×Z2 will do (where ZnZn denotes the cyclic group of order nn). As a direct product of cyclic (so abelian) groups, GG is again abelian. Given any element (x,y)∈G(x,y)∈G, the order of (x,y)(x,y) will be the least common multiple of the orders of x,y.x,y.  

The order of xx must divide 66 and the order of yy must divide 2,2, so the order of (x,y)(x,y) is at most lcm(6,2)=6.lcm⁡(6,2)=6. But |G|=|Z6|⋅|Z2|=6⋅2=12.|G|=|Z6|⋅|Z2|=6⋅2=12. Since no element of GG has order 12,12, then GG is not cyclic.

Find the Area of the figure below, composed of a parallelogram and one semicircle. Rounded to the nearest tenths place


Answers

Hi,

Recall that the area of a parallelogram is the product of the base b and the height or "altitude" h. So the formula is : b * h. b = 20 here, and h = 6, so we get : 20 * 6 = 120.

Now we have to compute the area of the semicircle, remember the formula for the area of a circle is : πr² where r is the radius of the circle. If we watch the figure, we already have the value of the diameter d = 8. So the radius is equal to half the diameter : r = 8 /2 = 4

Now applying the formula we get : πr² = π * 4² ≈ 50.3 rounded to the nearest tenth place.

But we don't wont the area of the circle, we want half the area of it, since it's a semicircle : πr² / 2 ≈ 25.1 rounded to the nearest tenth place.

Now to get the whole area of the figure, we need to sum the area of the parallelogram with the area of the semicircle : 120 + 25.1 ≈ 145.1 rounded to the nearest tenth place.

I feel that with that statement it directly refers to the environment if food is scarce then the best hunter the best runner is going to get the food first if the weather is changing and it's time to move on or hibernate then the one with the best intuitions will move on or assume hibernation and wont be left to the cold as well as if they are the prey to something else as everything is the best one to keep alert and observant to their surrounding would be the one to survive longer.
