The customer service department for a company claims that 90% of all customer complaints are resolved to the satisfaction of the customer. A random sample of 15 customers who have filed complaints is selected. Let Y be the number of sampled customers whose complaints were resolved to the customer’s satisfaction. As- suming the claim is true, find the following. (a) P(Y ≤ 13) (b)P(Y > 10) (c) P(Y ≥ 14) (d)P(9 ≤ Y ≤ 12)

In a random sample of 320 cars driven at low altitudes, 50 of them exceeded a standard of 10 grams of particulate pollution per gallon of fuel consumed. In an independent random sample of 135 cars driven at high altitudes, 17 of them exceeded the standard. Can you conclude that the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard is less than the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard? Let p1 denote the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard and p2 denote the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard. Use the =α0.10 level of significance and the P -value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator. please state all steps to the p method clearly!
A 99 percent one-sample z-interval for a proportion will be created from the point estimate obtained from each of two random samples selected from the same population: sample R and sample S. Let R represent a random sample of size 1,000, and let S represent a random sample of size 4,000. If the point estimate obtained from R is equal to the point estimate obtained from S, which of the following must be true about the respective margins of error constructed from those samples? (A) The margin of error for S will be 4 times the margin of error for R. (B) The margin of error for S will be 2 times the margin of error for R. (C) The margin of error for S will be equal to the margin of error for R. (D) The margin of error for R will be 4 times the margin of error for S. (E) The margin of error for R will be 2 times the margin of error for S.

A producer of pocket calculators purchases the main processor chips in lots of1,000. The producer would like to have a 1 percent rate of defectives but willnormally not refuse a lot unless it has 4 percent or more defectives. Samples of50 are drawn from each lot, and the lot is rejected if more than two defectives arefound.a. What are p0, p1, n, and c for this problem?
Southwestern Electronics has developed a new calculator that performs a series offunctions not yet performed by any other calculator. The marketing department isplanning to demonstrate this calculator to a group of potential customers, but it isworried about some initial problems, which have resulted in 4 percent of the newcalculators developing mathematical inconsistencies. The marketing VP is planningon randomly selecting a group of calculators for this demonstration and is worriedabout the chances of selecting a calculator that could start malfunctioning. Hebelieves that whether or not a calculator malfunctions is a Bernoulli process, and heis convinced that the probability of a malfunction is really about 0.04. Assuming thatthe VP selects exactly 50 calculators to use in the demonstration, and using thePoisson distribution as an approximation of the binomial, what is the chance ofgetting at least three calculators that malfunction?
A large shipment of computer chips comes with a guarantee that it contains no more than15% defective items. If the proportion of defective items in the shipment is greater than 15%,the shipment may be returned. You draw a random sample of 10 items. Let X be the numberof defective items in the sample. a. If in fact 15% of the items in the shipment are defective, what is P(X ≥ 2)?b. Based on the answer to part (a), if 15% of the items in the shipment are defective,would 2 defectives in a sample of size 10 be an unusually large number? c. If you found that 2 of the 10 sample items were defective, would this be convincingevidence that the shipment should be returned? Explain. d. If in fact 15% of the items in the shipment are defective, what is P(X ≥ 7)? e. Based on the answer to part (d), if 15% of the items in the shipment are defective,would 7 defectives in a sample of size 10 be an unusually large number?f. If you found that 7 of the 10 sample items were defective, would this be…
