Suppose that, on average, 4 percent of all CD drives received by a computer company are defective.
The company has adopted the following policy:
Sample 50 CD drives in each shipment, and accept the shipment if none are defective.
Using this information, determine the following:
a) What fraction of shipments will be accepted?
b) If the policy changes so that a shipment is accepted if only one CD drive in the sample isdefective, what fraction of shipments will be accepted?
c) What is the probability that a sample size of 50 will contain at least 10 defective CD drives?

Hint: You can use BINOMDIST function.

Please help me, this is an excel question

Respuesta :

The percentage of packages that will be accepted is 0.1299. as, The percentage of packages that will be accepted is 0.1299.

What is the method of doing probability?

Probability of a defective DVD = 0.04

Using Binomial distribution,

Fraction of shipments accepted = Probability of zero defects in sample of 50 = P(X = 0)

= 50C0 * 0.040 * (1 - 0.04)⁵⁰

= 0.96⁵⁰

= 0.1299

Fraction of shipments accepted = Probability of zero or one defects in sample of 50 = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

= 50C0 * 0.040 * (1 - 0.04)50-0 + 50C1 * 0.041 * (1 - 0.04)50-1

= 0.9650 + 50 * 0.04 * 0.9649

= 0.4005

Thus, it is 0.1299.
