A process that fills packages is stopped whenever a package is detected whose weight falls outside the specification. Assume that each package has probability 0.02 of falling outside the specification and that the weights of the packages are independent. Find the mean number of packages that will be filled before the process is stopped. Numeric Response

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mean number of packages that will be filled before the process is stopped is 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each package, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it fails outside the specifications, or it does not. Packages are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

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

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

Number of trials expected for n sucesses

Also called inverse binomial distribution, is given by:

[tex]E = \frac{n}{p}[/tex]

In which p is the probability of a success in a trial.

Assume that each package has probability 0.02 of falling outside the specification and that the weights of the packages are independent.

This means that [tex]p = 0.02[/tex]

Find the mean number of packages that will be filled before the process is stopped.

This is when [tex]n = 1[/tex], as the process is stopped when a package is outside the specifications. So

[tex]E = \frac{n}{p} = \frac{1}{0.02} = 50[/tex]

The mean number of packages that will be filled before the process is stopped is 50.

Statistics Question. Use the Desmos graphing calculator to find the least-squares regression line for the dataset in the table:

Answers

Given:

The table of values.

To find:

The least-squares regression line for the data set in the table by using the desmos graphing calculator.

Solution:

The general form of least-squares regression line is:

[tex]\hat{y}=mx+b[/tex]           ...(i)

Where, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

By using the desmos graphing calculator, we get

[tex]m\approx 2.55,b\approx -6.435[/tex]

Substitute these values in (i).

[tex]\hat{y}=(2.55)x+(-6.435)[/tex]

[tex]\hat{y}=2.55x-6.435[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is A.

The graph of regression line is attached below.

The equation of regression line is [tex]y=2.55x-6.435[/tex]

Equation of regression line:

A graphing calculator is a calculator device that has the ability to display plotted graphs for complex equations.

First we have to enter the given table in graphing calculator,

After entering the data given into table,

We get,   m= 2.55  and b= -6.435

So that, the equation of regression line is [tex]y=2.55x-6.435[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following function:

Derivative of a quotient:

Suppose we have a quotient:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{g(x)}{h(x)}[/tex]

The derivative is:

[tex]f^{\prime}(x) = \frac{g^{\prime}(x)h(x) - h^{\prime}(x)g(x)}{h(x)^2}[/tex]

In this question:

Numerator [tex]g(x) = 5, g^{\prime}(x) = 0[/tex]

Denominator [tex]h(x) = 3 - x, h^{\prime}(x) = -1[/tex]

[tex]f^{\prime}(x) = \frac{0(3-x) - 5}{(3 - x)^2} = -\frac{5}{x^2-6x+9}[/tex]

The derivative is:

[tex]f^{\prime}(x) = -\frac{5}{x^2-6x+9}[/tex]

Write an equation in the form y = mx + b of the line that is described. The line has the same y-intercept as the line whose equation is y = - 2 + x and is
parallel to the line whose equation is 3x + 3y = 6.

Answers

Answer:

y=x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

So, our line has the same y intercept as the equation is y=-2+x, and parallel to 3x+3y=6

We want to write the equation in y=mx+b form, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The y intercept of y=-2+x is -2, (we can rearrange it to be y=x-2) so that's the y intercept of our line

so far, here's our line:

y=mx-2

First, let's put 3x+3y=6 into slope-intercept form

subtract 3x from both sides

3y=-3x+6

divide by 3

y=-x+2

Perpendicular lines are negative and reciprocal; if you multiply their slopes together, the result is -1.

The slope for y=-x+2 is -1.

To find the slope of the new line:

-1m=-1

divide by -1

m=1

The slope of our line is 1

here's our line:

y=x+2
