Suppose that a single-sampling plan with n=50 and c=1 is being used for receiving inspection where the supplier ships the product in lots of size N=3,000, If the lot fraction defective is p = 0.02. Determine the probability of rejecting the lot.
Suppose that, as Human Resources Manager of a firm with more than 10,000 employees, you are interested in understanding: (i) what fraction of those employees are satisfied with their working conditions and (ii) how many hours your employees spend each evening reading and writing work-related emails. You do not have the budget to survey all employees, so you a sample of 200 employees. The results reveal that: (i) 125 of the sample employees are satisfied with their working conditions and (ii) sample employees spend, on average, 2.2 hours each evening reading and writing work-related emails, with a sample standard deviation of 0.4 hours. 1. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the proportion (p) of employees who are satisfied with their working conditions. 2. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours employees spend reading and writing work-related emails each evening.

The control department of a light bulb manufacturer randomly picks 4400 light bulbs from the production lot every week. The records show that, when there is no malfunction, the defect rate in the manufacturing process ( due to imperfections in the material used) is 1%. When 1.25% or more of the light bulbs in the sample of 4400 are defective, the control unit calls repair technicians for service. Answer the following.
The U.S. Census Bureau conducts annual surveys to obtain information on the percentage of the voting-age population that is registered to vote. Suppose that 642642 employed persons and 745745 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected, and that 376376 of the employed persons and 300300 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote. Can we conclude that the percentage of employed workers ( p1p1 ), who have registered to vote, exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers ( p2p2 ), who have registered to vote?

What is your favorite color? A large survey of countries, including the United States, China, Russia, France, Turkey, Kenya, and others, indicated that most people prefer the color blue. In fact, about 24% of the population claim blue as their favorite color.† Suppose a random sample of n= 52 college students were surveyed and r= 8of them said that blue is their favorite color. Does this information imply that the color preference of all college students is different (either way) from that of the general population? Use? =0.05.
A manufacturer of cereal is considering three alter native box colors—red, yellow, and blue. To check whether such a consideration has any effect on sales, 16 stores of approximately equal size are chosen. Red boxes are sent to 6 of these stores, yellow boxes to 5 others, and blue boxes to the remaining 5. After a few days a check is made on the number of sales in each store. The results (in tens of boxes) shown in the following table were obtained. Red Yellow Blue 43 52 61 52 37 29 59 38 38 76 64 53 61 74 79 81a. Calculate the within-groups, between-groups, and total sum of squares.b. Complete the analysis of variance table, and test the null hypothesis that the population mean sales levels are the same for all three box colors.
