A mechanical press is used to mold shapes for plastic toys. When the machine is adjusted and working well, it still produces about 7% defective toys. The toys are manufactured in lots of n = 100. Let r be a random variable representing the number of defective toys in a lot. Then is the proportion of defective toys in a lot. What is P? (proportion of defective toys for this mechanical press).

Expert Solution

P = 0.07

Last year Deiters Aluminum purchased a new press machine used in manufacturing for $308,000. At a trade show the VP of Manufacturing learned about a new machine that is available that offers many advantages and can be purchased for $440,000 today. The new press machine would be depreciated on a straight line basis for 10 years after which it would have no salvage value. The VP of Manufacturing expects that the new machine will produce EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,...

A machine can be adjusted so that, when it is under control, the mean amount of sugar dispensed is 5 lbs. It is known that the population standard deviation is .15 lbs. The quality control supervisor would like to know if the quality is controlled. To do a quality control check, 16 bags of sugar are randomly selected and weighed. The sample mean was found to be 5.1 lbs. Find the p-value for this test rounded to 4 decimal places

A machine used for filling plastic bottles with a soft drink has a target mean fill volume of 2.9 liters and a known standard deviation of 0.05 liter. State the sampling distribution of the sample mean, if you obtain a random sample of 25 bottles. Options- X bar ~ N(2.9, 0.01) X ~ N(2.9, 0.01) X ~ N(2.9, 0.05)

When a special machine instruction is used to provide mutual exclusion in the fashion of Figure 5.2, there is no control over how long a process must wait before being granted access to its critical section. Devise an algorithm that uses the compare & swap instruction but that guarantees that any process waiting to enter its critical section will do so within n −1 turns, where n is the number of processes that may require access to the critical section...
