7-14. A consumer electronics company is comparing the brightness of two different types of picture tubes for use in...
HW4 7-4. Suppose that samples of size n=25 are selected at ran- dom from a normal population with mean 100 and standard deviation 10. What is the probability that the sample mean falls in the interval from uly-1.70 touy +1.50 ? 7-5. A synthetic fiber used in manufacturing carpet has tensile strength that is normally distributed with mean 520 KN/m and standard deviation 25 KN/mp. Find the probability that a ran- dom sample of n= 6 fiber specimens will have...
The life span (in thousand hours) of picture tubes manufactured by a company can be modeled using exponential distribution. On a survey it has been found that there were two types of processes by which the picture tubes can be manufactured. If type I has been adopted, the expected life span would be 700 (in thousand hours) whereas the expected lifespan of picture tubes by using the second type would be 1050 hours. Type Il is twice as costly as...
Question 5 1 pts Two types of plastics are suitable for an electronics component manufacturer to use. The breaking strength of this plastic is important. It is known that the standard deviations of the two types of plastics are the same, with a value of 1.0 psi. From a random sample of 10 and 12 for type 1 and type 2 plastics, respectively, we obtain sample means of 162.5 and 155. The company will not adopt plastic 1 unless its...
