A company makes computer chips. Minor defects in the materials (silicon, etc.) are common, and the probability that any one chip is defective is 25%. Therefore, the company tests each chip to make sure it is good before it sends it to market. The test that the company uses is not perfect – even a bad chip will pass the test 10% of the time, and a good chip will fail 5% of the time. In the long run, what fraction of the computer chips that the company sells are defective?
Ans:
P(defective)=0.25
P(pass/defective)=0.10
P(fail/not defective)=0.05
P(pass)=P(pass/defective)*P(defective)+P(pass/not defective)*P(not defective)
=0.10*0.25+(1-0.05)*(1-0.25)
=0.7375
Company will sell only those chips,that pass the test,so we have to calculate:
P(defective/pass)=P(pass/defective)*P(defective)/P(pass)
=0.10*0.25/0.7375=0.0339

A manufacturer of computer memory chips produces chips in lots of 1000. If nothing has gone wrong in the manufacturing process, at most 7 chips each lot would be defective, but if something does go wrong, there could be far more defective chips. If something goes wrong with a given lot, they discard the entire lot. It would be prohibitively expensive to test every chip in every lot, so they want to make the decision of whether or not to...
In a production operation of an electronics firm, a company manufactures I/O circuit chips that is used in a final assembly process. The chips, manufactured in batches sizes are either good (G) or defective (B). Historical data indicates that P(G) = .8 and P(B)=.2. The company has the following options: Send the batch, “as is,” onto the final production assembly. It costs $1,000 to send good parts onto production and $4,000 to send bad parts to final production (due to...
11. Computer chips from a certain supplier have a 7% chance of containing defect. Suppose that we continue to test chips from this manufacturer until we find 10 that have no defects. Let X be the number of defective chips that we have found at the time of the 10th good chip. Find P(X = 5) a manufacturing (b) .001957 (c) .0016285 (d) 1.3742 x 10-16 (e).0023761 (a) 1.4732 x 10-4
A manufacturing plant produces memory chips to be used in cardiac pacemakers. The manufacturing process produces a mix of "good" chips and "bad" chips. The lifetime of good chips follows an exponential law with a rate of failure a, that is: P[chip still functioning after time t]-e-t The lifetime of bad chips also follows an exponential law, but with a much faster failure rate of 500*a. a. Suppose the fraction of bad chips in a typical batch is χ. What...
4.6 When silicon chips are fabricated, defects in materials (eg, silicon) and manufacturing errors can result in defective circuits. A very common defect is for one wire to affect the signal in another. This is called a cross-talk fault. A special class of cross-talk faults is when a signal is connected to a wire that has a constant logical value (eg, a power supply wire). In this case, we have a stuck-at-0 or a stuck- at-l fault, and the affected...
Introduction: A manufacturing company that possesses many complexities can be highly challenged when maintaining production goals and standards in conjunction with a major organizational change. Garment manufacturing is a complex industry for many reasons. The product line is a complex array of styles, seasons, varying life cycles and multidimensional sizing. Many sewn product firms are viewing TQM as the appropriate strategy to meet the double demand of competition and quality; however, many companies are finding sustaining their TQM adoption decision...

Hello! Could you please write your own four paragraph (5-6 sentences per paragraph) take away or reflection of the below information? Please complete in 24 hours if possible. Thank you! RIS BOHNET THINKS firms are wasting their money on diversity training. The problem is, most programs just don’t work. Rather than run more workshops or try to eradicate the biases that cause discrimination, she says, companies need to redesign their processes to prevent biased choices in the first place. Bohnet...
Please read the article bellow and discuss the shift in the company's approach to genetic analysis. Please also discuss what you think about personal genomic companies' approaches to research. Feel free to compare 23andMe's polices on research with another company's. Did you think the FDA was right in prohibiting 23andMe from providing health information? These are some sample talking points to get you thinking about the ethics of genetic research in the context of Big Data. You don't have to...
