Determine which of the given procedures describe a binomial distribution. Select one: A. Record the number of ear piercings in a group of 30 randomly selected college students. B. Observing that five out of the next ten customers at a hotdog stand order hot peppers given that the probability of ordering hot peppers is 0.18. C. Surveying customers leaving a hardware store until a customer responds that he or she spent more than fifty dollars.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Observing that five out of the next ten customers at a hotdog stand order hot peppers given that the probability of ordering hot peppers is 0.18.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

Option A:

No, since it is not the probability, or percentage of students that have ear pircings, it is the number, which can assume values larger than 1.

Option B:

Yes, since it is a probability, each customer is independent of other customers, and in each trial, there are only two possible outcomes. This is the correct answer.

Option C:

No, this is called inverse binomial, as we want to find the number of customers until one does something, not the probability of a number of customers doing something.

The RideEm Bicycles factory can produce 100 bicycles in a day at a total cost of $10,900, and it can produce 120 bicycles in a day at a total cost of $11,700. (a) Find a linear function that models the total cost for RideEm to produce x bicycles.

Answers

Answer:

c(x) = 40 (x) + $6,900

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, given data are as follows,

Total cost of 100 bicycles (x1) = $10,900

Total cost of 120 bicycles (x2) = $11,700

Let Number of bicycles = X

Than cost of X bicycles = c(X)

let, fixed cost be F and variables cost be V, than

c(X) = V(X) + F

So, we can calculate variable cost by using following method,

V = c(x2) - c(x1) ÷ ( x2 - x1)

= ( $11,700 - $10,900) ÷ ( 120 - 100)

= $800 ÷ 20

= $40

So, calculate fixed cast by putting value to equation,

$10,900 = ($40 ×100) + F

F = $10,900 - $4,000 = $6,900

So, For x number of bicycles, cost equation will be,

c(x) = 40 (x) + $6,900

Answers

Answer:

x ≥ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

First, put the same terms on the same side. So subtract 5 from both sides. You will get:

-3x ≤ -21

Divide both sides by -3 to get x alone. When dividing, the inequality sign will change to the opposite. So it will go from a (less than or equal to) sign to a (greater than or equal to) sign.

You will get:

x ≥ 7

Therefore, x will be a number that is greater than or equal to 7.

A particular employee arrives at work sometime between 8:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. Based on past experience the company has determined that the employee is equally likely to arrive at any time between 8:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. Find the probability that the employee will arrive between 8:15 a.m. and 8:25 a.m. Round your answer to four decimal places, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

0.3333 = 33.33% probability that the employee will arrive between 8:15 a.m. and 8:25 a.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distributon has two bounds, a and b, and the probability of finding a value between c and d is given by:

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

A particular employee arrives at work sometime between 8:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m.

We can consider 8 am = 0, and 8:30 am  = 30, so [tex]a = 0, b = 30[/tex]

Find the probability that the employee will arrive between 8:15 a.m. and 8:25 a.m.

Between 15 and 25, so:

[tex]P(15 \leq X \leq 25) = \frac{25 - 15}{30 - 0} = 0.3333[/tex]

0.3333 = 33.33% probability that the employee will arrive between 8:15 a.m. and 8:25 a.m.

(b) Calculate a point estimate of the standard deviation of oxide thickness for all wafers in the population. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) (c) Calculate the standard error of the point estimate from part (a). (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Data on oxide thickness of semiconductors are as follows: 425, 430, 414, 419, 421, 436, 418, 412, 430, 434, 423, 426, 408, 437, 435, 428, 412, 426, 409, 439, 422, 426, 414, 416

(a) Calculate a point estimate of the mean oxide thickness for all wafers in the population. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)

(b) Calculate a point estimate of the standard deviation of oxide thickness for all wafers in the population. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

(c) Calculate the standard error of the point estimate from part (a). (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answer:

a) point estimate of the mean oxide thickness for all wafers in the population is 423.333

b) point estimate of the standard deviation of oxide thickness for all wafers in the population is 9.23

c) the standard error of the point estimate from part (a) is 1.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

x = 425, 430, 414, 419, 421, 436, 418, 412, 430, 434, 423, 426, 408, 437, 435, 428, 412, 426, 409, 439, 422, 426, 414, 416.  

a)

To determine the mean;

we sum the total value divided by the sample size.

mean x" =  (425 + 430 + 414 + 419 + ............... + 414 + 416) / 24

mean x'' =   10160/ 24    

mean x" = 423.3333 ≈ 423.333

Therefore; point estimate of the mean oxide thickness for all wafers in the population is 423.333

b)  standard deviation

we can determine the population standard deviation us the formula;

S.D(X) = √[ (ⁿ∑_[tex]_{i=1}[/tex] ([tex]X_{i}[/tex] - X")²) / n ]

= √[ {(425-423.3333)² + (430-423.3333)² +......+ (416-423.3333)² } / 24 ]

= √[ 1957.333 / 24 )

S.D(X) = 9.03  

Note, the point of estimate of the variance population is biased estimate.

The unbiased point estimate of oxide thickness for all wafers in the population will be;

S.D(X) = √[ (ⁿ∑_[tex]_{i=1}[/tex] ([tex]X_{i}[/tex] - X")²) / (n-1) ]

= √[ {(425-423.3333)² + (430-423.3333)² +......+ (416-423.3333)² } / (24-1) ]

= √[ 1957.333 / 23 )

S.D(X) = 9.225 ≈ 9.23

Therefore, point estimate of the standard deviation of oxide thickness for all wafers in the population is 9.23

c) the standard error  

SE (X") = S.D / √n

since the standard deviation is the unbiased estimate for the population, so;

SE (X") = 9.23 / √24

SE (X") = 1.884 ≈ 1.88

Therefore, the standard error of the point estimate from part (a) is 1.88

C) At α = 0.025, reject the null hypothesis.
D) At α = 0.05, accept the null hypothesis.

Answers

Answer:

A) At α = 0.05, reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a p-test value of 0.0436 ;

P-value = 0.0436

Recall :

Decision region :

Reject Null if p value < α

Testing the options :

A) At α = 0.05,

0.0436 < 0.05 (true)

Since p value < α ; Reject the null hypothesis.

B) At α = 0.10,

0.0436 < 0.1

True conclusion is to reject the Null Hypothesis

Hence, option B is incorrect.

C) At α = 0.025, reject the null hypothesis.

0.0436 > 0.025

True conclusion is ; Fail to reject the Null ;

Hence, option C is incorrect

D) At α = 0.05, accept the null hypothesis.

0.0436 < 0.05

True conclusion is ; reject the Null

Hence, option D is incorrect
