A random sample of 200 printed circuits boards contains 15 defective or nonconforming units. Estimate the process fraction nonconforming. a. Test the hypothesis that the true fraction nonconforming in this process is 0.10. b. Construct a 95% confidence interval on the true fraction nonconforming in the production process.

Expert Solution

a)

H0: p = 0.10

HA: p 0.10

Sample proportion = 15 / 200 = 0.075

Test statistics

z = - p / sqrt(p( 1 - p) / n)

= 0.075 - 0.10 / sqrt( 0.10 * 0.9 / 200)

= -1.18

This is test statistics value.

Critical value at 0.05 level = -1.96 , 1.96

Since test statistics value falls in the non-rejection region, that is falls between -1.96 and 1.96 ,

we do not have sufficient evidence to reject H0.

We conclude that we fail to support the claim.

b)

95% confidence interval for p is

- Z * sqrt( ( 1 - ) / n) < p < + Z * sqrt( ( 1 - ) / n)

0.075 - 1.96 * sqrt(0.075 * 0.925 / 200) < P < 0.075 + 1.96 * sqrt(0.075 * 0.925 / 200)

0.0385 < p < 0.1115

95% CI is ( 0.0385 , 0.1115)

A company manufactures Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) expects to have 6 defective units each day. Let Y be a random variable that counts the number of defective units produced each day. A. Which discrete random variable distribution would best model this scenario? B. What is the probability that the number of defective units observed in a dayexceeds the mean number by more than one standard deviation? C. What is the probability that, on two randomly selected days, no defective units...

A shipment contains 200 items of which 50 are defective. A sample of 16 items from the shipment is selected at random without replacement.

A shipment contains 200 items of which 50 are defective. A sample of 16 items from the shipment is selected at random without replacement. We accept the shipment if at most 3 items in the sample are defective. (a) Write down (but do not evaluate) an exact formula for the probability of acceptance. (b) Use a Table to give the decimal value for the binomial approximation of the probability of acceptance. Show your work. (c) Suppose instead that the shipment contains 500 items of...

Assume that 15% of circuit boards used in manufacturing compact displayers are defective. Off a batch of 200 randomly selected such circuit boards, use the normal approximation with the continuity correction to find the probability that at most 30 of these boards are defective. Is your answer approximate or exact. b. find exact probability using R code to compare answer on the previous question?
