A car manufacturer recently discovered two major flaws present in some of their models. It is estimated that 3% of a car chosen randomly will have the first flaw present, 5% the second flaw and 2% both flaws. Once a car from this manufacturer is chosen randomly what is the probability that the car
a) has at least 1 of these flaws
2) has at least 1 of these flaws but not both flaws simultaneously

One thousand sheets of aluminum alloy produced by the same manufacturer were examined for surface flaws. Assume surface flaws occur randomly and independently at a constant rate with an average of 4 flaws per sheet. Sheets are all the same size. a) [3 points] What is the probability that a randomly chosen sheet contains more than 1 surface flaw? b) [3 points] When 10 sheets are picked at random, what is the probability that 6 of these sheets have more...

Items are inspected for flaws by two quality inspectors. If a flaw is present, it will be detected by the first inspector with probability 0.92, and by the second inspector with probability 0.7. Assume the inspectors function independently Assume that the second inspector examines only those items that have been passed by the first inspector. If an item has a flaw, what is the probability that the second inspector will find it? Round the answer to three...
Two different models of a car manufacturer are compared to see if Model A has a higher average miles per gallon (mpg) than Model B. A sample of size 14 Model A cars found a sample average of 28.2 mpg and a standard deviation 3.0 mpg. A sample of size 10 Model B cars found a sample average of 22.6 mpg and a standard deviation of 5.1 mpg. Conduct the appropriate hypothesis test. a. Ho: μA = μB Ha: μA...
1. A manufacturer of processing chips knows that 2% of its chips are defective in some way. Suppose an inspector randomly selects 4 chips for an inspection. Assuming the chips are independent, what is the probability that at least one of the selected chips is defective? 2. A box contains 4 red marbles, 3 green marbles, and 2 blue marbles. One marble is removed from the box and it is not replaced. Another marble is drawn from the box. What...
Jane Dow recently opened a new car wash in an affluent suburb of a major metropolitan area. Dow decided to cater to the high-priced segment of the car-wash market and to try as much as possible to service expensive cars that are highly pampered by their owners. The car wash uses a two-stage wash and cleaning process. In the first stage, cars are washed using state-of-the-art automatic car-wash machines with brushes that are “baby-bumper smooth”. The second-stage of the process...

16 parts are examined for defects. It is found that 10 are good, 4 have minor defects, and 2 have mathat is, the first part chosen is not e will be only 15 posible defects. Two parts are chosen at random from the 16 without replacement, that is, the first part chosen is not returned to the mix before the second part is chosen. Notice, then, that there will be only 15 possible choices for the second part a) What...
