Conveyor Belt Motors (20 points) The brushes in the motors that control the conveyor belts at Delectable Delights need to be rep

laced periodically. Since there are many conveyor belts through the buildings, a supply of brushes is always kept on hand. The brushes come in shipments of 1000 from a supplier who claims that no more than 2% will be defective. Out of each shipment, a random sample of 10 brushes is selected for testing. If there are any defective brushes in the sample, the shipment will be rejected. Let X be the number of defective brushes in a sample of size 10. (a) Could the random variable X be considered a Binomial random variable? Justify your answer using the properties of a Binomial random variable from page 88 in the lecture guide. (5 points) (b) Regardless of your answer in part (a), assume that X is a Binomial random variable. Write out the sample space for X. What are the values of the parameters n and p? (5 points) (c) Calculate the mean and standard deviation for X. Show your calculations and round your answers to two decimal places if necessary. (5 points) (d) Calculate the probability that a shipment will be rejected. Show your work by substituting values into the appropriate formula. Include probability notation in your answer. (5 points)

Maureen McIlvoy, owner and CEO of a mail order business for wind surfing equipment and supplies, is reviewing the order filling
lawyer [12517]

Response:

Maureen's null hypothesis is, H₀: p₁ ≥ p₂.

Detailed explanation:

Maureen McIlvoy, as the owner and CEO of a mail-order business specializing in windsurfing gear, is scrutinizing the order fulfillment processes in her warehouses. Her objective is to achieve a 100% shipment rate of orders within 24 hours. Upon examining her warehouse operations, she discovers that both the East coast and West coast warehouses have not met this goal, although the East Coast warehouse has consistently outperformed its counterpart.

To verify this finding, Maureen’s team randomly sampled 200 orders from the West Coast warehouse (population 1) and 400 from the East Coast warehouse (population 2).

Of the sampled 200 orders from the West Coast warehouse, 190 were delivered within the specified time. In contrast, 372 out of 400 orders from the East Coast warehouse were processed within 24 hours.

The hypotheses can be formulated as followed:

H₀: The proportion of timely shipments from the East Coast does not exceed that from the West Coast warehouse, thus, p₁ ≥ p₂.

Hₐ: The proportion of timely shipments from the East Coast warehouse is indeed greater than that from the West Coast warehouse, stated as p₁ < p₂.

Thus, Maureen's null hypothesis becomes, H₀: p₁ ≥ p₂.

∠A and ∠B are complementary angles of right triangle ABC, cos A = 0.83, and cos B = 0.55. What is sin A + sin B?
babunello [11817]
Since the angles are complementary, it follows that sin A = cos B and sin B = cos A

therefore sin A + sin B = 0.55 + 0.83 = 1.38
