Answer:

The confidence interval is (351.04, 368.96)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are population mean = 360

Standard deviation = 4

margin of error = 2.5% = 0.025

As the population standard deviation is known, we can apply the Z critical value

For a two-tailed critical value corresponding to 2.5%, we have

2.24

The margin of error is calculated as ±Critical value * standard deviation

= ±2.24(4)

= ±8.96

The confidence interval can be determined as follows = (Mean - margin of error, Mean + margin of error)

=(360-8.96, 360+8,.96)\\= (351.04, 368.96)

A shipment of 20 similar laptop computers to a retail outlet contains 3 that are defective. If a school makes a random purchase
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total count of laptops, N = 20

Defective laptops, n = 3

The school is purchasing 2 laptops

Case 1:

Both purchased laptops are non-defective

Probability of selecting 2 non-defective laptops

The count of non-defective laptops equals 20 - 3 = 17

Overall laptop count = 20

Probability, P = 17/20 = 0.85

Case 2:

One laptop is found defective

The probability of choosing 1 defective and 1 non-defective laptop

P' = 3/20 x 17/19 = 0.134

Case 3:

Both laptops are defective

Choosing 2 laptops from 3 = 3 C 2 = 3

Selecting 2 from 20 = 20 C 2 = 190

The probability of selecting two defective laptops equals 3 / 190 = 0.0158

P'' =

Zina [12379]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph can take on three forms as displayed in the figure.

(a) having no intersections

(b) having a single point of intersection (tangency)

(c) having two points of intersection.

Consequently, the maximum number of intersections that these graphs can yield is 2, as illustrated in figure (c).

An automobile manufacturer sold 30,000 new cars, one to each of 30,000 customers, in a certain year. The manufacturer was intere
babunello [11817]
A) To establish a sampling plan, follow these 5 steps:
    1) Identify the sample population: which customers will you reach out to?
       Those who purchased a new car during a specific year.
    2) Determine the population size: how many customers will you contact?
       From the 30,000 car buyers, select 1,000 customers to contact.
    3) Select contact method: what is your means of contacting customers?
       Since you have a list with names and addresses, mailing questionnaires is feasible.
    4) Define the sampling frame: what is the timeline or deadline for contacting customers?
       Send out questionnaires and allow two months for responses.
    5) Decide on the analysis approach: is your research qualitative or quantitative?
     You aim for quantitative research, so you will use probabilistic sampling.

B) The 32.5% probability relates only to those customers who experienced mechanical issues, specifically power door lock problems, and does not account for those without any problems or those reporting issues after the first 5,000 miles.

C) To estimate the probability of power door lock problems among all customers within the first 5,000 miles, consider the entire sample:
P = 13 / 1000 = 0.013

Therefore,
N = 0.013 × 30,000 = 390

Thus, the estimated number of new cars that had power door lock issues within 5,000 miles is 390.
