Acceptance sampling is an important quality control technique, where a batch of data is tested to...
Many companies use a quality control technique called acceptance sampling to monitor incoming shipments of parts, raw materials, and so on. In the electronics industry, component parts are commonly shipped from suppliers in large lots. Inspection of a sample of 40 components can be viewed as the 40 trials of a binomial experiment. The outcome for each component tested (trial) will be that the component is classified as good or defective. Reynolds Electronics accepts a lot from a particular supplier...
8.With one method of a procedure called acceptance sampling, a sample of items is randomly selected without replacement and the entire batch is accepted if every item in the sample is okay. A company has just manufactured 1591 CDs, and 196 are defective. If 3 of these CDs are randomly selected fortesting, what is the probability that the entire batch will be accepted? Does this outcome suggest that the entire batch consists of good CDs? Why or why not? If...
A study by Allstate Insurance Co. finds that 82% of teenagers have used cell phones while driving (The Wal/Street Journal, May 5, 2010, Suppose a random sample of 100 teen drivers is taken. [You may find it useful to reference the z table.] a-1. Calculate the standard error for the sampling distribution of the sample proportion. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) Standard error a-2. Is the sampling distribution of the sample proportion approximately...
A pharmaceutical company receives large shipments of aspirin tablets. The acceptance sampling plan is to randomly select and test 59 tablets, then accept th batch if there is only one or none that doesn't meet the required specifications. If one shipment of 4000 aspirin tablets actually has a 4% rate of defects, what probability that this whole shipment will be accepted? Will almost all such shipments be accepted, or will many be rejected? The probability that this whole shipment will...
A random sample of size n = 84 is taken from a population of size N = 931 with a population proportion p = 0.58. [You may find it useful to reference the z table.] a-1. Is it necessary to apply the finite population correction factor? Yes No a-2. Calculate the expected value and the standard error of the sample proportion. (Round "expected value" to 2 decimal places and "standard error" to 4 decimal places.) b. What is the probability...
The quality-control inspector of a production plant will reject a batch of syringes if two or more defective syringes are found in a random sample of six syringes taken from the batch. Suppose the batch contains 1% defective syringes. (a) Make a histogram showing the probabilities of r = 0, 1, 2, 3, …, 5 and 6 defective syringes in a random sample of six syringes. (Select the correct graph.) A histogram with 4 visible bars is given. The horizontal...
A machine that is programmed to package 5.60 pounds of cereal is being tested for its accuracy. In a sample of 100 cereal boxes, the sample mean filling weight is calculated as 5.69 pounds. The population standard deviation is known to be 0.09 pound. [You may find it useful to reference the z table.] a-1. Identify the relevant parameter of interest for these quantitative data. The parameter of interest is the proportion filling weight of all cereal packages. The parameter...
