Six percent of computer chips produced by Cheapo Chips are defective. Each month a random sample of 200 chips manufactured that month are taken. Let X = the number of defective chips in the sample. What are the mean and standard deviation of X?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that the mean of X is of 12, with a standard deviation of 3.36.

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, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.  

The mean of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

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

In this problem:

Six percent of computer chips produced by Cheapo Chips are defective, hence [tex]p = 0.06[/tex].Each month a random sample of 200 chips manufactured that month are taken, hence [tex]n = 200[/tex]

Then:

[tex]E(X) = np = 200(0.06) = 12[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1 - p)} = \sqrt{200(0.06)(0.94)} = 3.36[/tex]

The mean of X is of 12, with a standard deviation of 3.36.

Note: I ended up with the simultaneous equations, which are correct according to the markscheme BUT the answers I got upon solving them were incorrect.
μ = 170 + 1.6449σ
μ = 180 - 0.8416σ

What I got after solving these were:
μ = 169.5306859
σ = 12.44864932

But according to the markscheme, I should have gotten:
μ = 176.615...
σ = 4.021...

Can someone explain to me where I've gone wrong?

Answers

Answer:

Yes, your simultaneous equations are correct;

Solve them like so:

170 + 1.6449σ = 180 - 0.8416

2.4865σ = 10

σ = 4.0217...

μ = 170 + 1.6449(4.0217...)

μ = 176.615...

A. (f+ g)(x) = -2x2 - 8x+ 12

B. (f+g)(x) = 8x2 + 8x + 12

O C. (f+g)(x) = 2x2 + 8x - 12

D. (f+g)(x) = 8x2 + 4x - 4

Answers

Answer:

  D. (f+g)(x) = 8x^2 + 4x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The notation (f+g)(x) is shorthand for f(x) +g(x).

  (f +g)(x) = f(x) +g(x) = (3x^2 -2x +4) +(5x^2 +6x -8)

  = (3 +5)x^2 +(-2 +6)x +(4 -8)

  (f +g)(x) = 8x^2 +4x -4

A scatterplot is used to display data for a runner where x is the number of miles run, and y is the time, in minutes, that it takes to run that distance. Which interpretation describes a line of best fit of y = 9. 5x for the data in the scatterplot? For each 1 minute, the runner ran 9. 5 miles. For each 9. 5 minutes, the runner ran 1 mile. The minimum distance with a recorded time is 9. 5 miles. The maximum distance with a recorded time is 9. 5 miles.

Answers

The interpretation that describes a line of best fit of y = 9.5x for the data in the scatterplot is (a) For each 1 minute, the runner ran 9.5 miles

The equation of the line of best fit is given as:

[tex]y = 9.5x[/tex]

The line of best fit is represented as:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Where m represents the rate or slope.

So, by comparison:

[tex]m = 9.5[/tex]

This means that, the number of miles travelled every minute is 9.5

Hence, the true statement is (a)

The value of x in the expression is 18(24/30).

What is an expression?

An expression is a way of writing a statement with more than two variables or numbers with operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Example: 2 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

We have,

8(3/5) = (3/4)x - 5(1/2)

43/5 = 3x/4 - 11/2

43/5  + 11/2 = 3x/4

(86 + 55)/10 = 3x/4

141/10 = 3x/4

3x = 141 x 4 / 10

x = 564/30

x = 18(24/30)

Thus,

The value of x is 18(24/30).

What is the relationship between 0.04 and 0.004?

Answers

Answer: 0.04 is exactly 10 times as much as 0.004. If we multiply 0.004 by 10, we will get 0.04 as an answer. In other words, we can say that 0.004 is exactly 1/10th of 0.04. It means that if we divide 0.04 by 10, we will get 0.004 as an answer.

Answer:

Look below

Step-by-step explanation:

0.04 means 4 hundredths since if you divide 4 by 100 you get 0.04. You can try it yourself on a calculator. 0.004 is 4 thousandths. Same thing with 0.04, if you divide 4 by 1000 you will get 0.004. Hope this helps! If you want me to explain a bit more I can try

A study of the annual population of the red - winged blackbird in FT. Mill, South Carolina, shows the population incresing at a rate of 16%. If
the population starts at 150 blackbirds, then which of the following functions properly models the population B(t) as a function of time.
O a B(t) = 150(1.6)
Ob B(t) = 150(16)
Oc B(t) = 150(1.16)
Od B(t) = 150(.84)

Answers

The functions that properly model the population B(t) as a function of time is B(t) = 150 (1.16)

Given the following

Initial population = 150 birds

If there is a 16% increase, the increment will be 0.16(150)

The population B(t) as a function of time will be expreessed as:

B(t) = 150(1+0.16)

B(t) = 150 (1.16)

Hence the functions that properly model the population B(t) as a function of time is B(t) = 150 (1.16)

What is the answer

Answers

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Length = 5x

Breadth = 4x

Perimeter = 2(l + b)

=> 144 = 2(5x + 4x)

=> 144 = 2(9x)

=> 144 = 18x

=> 144/18 = x

=> 8 = x

Therefore,

Length = 5x = 5(8) = 40 cm
