You are conducting quality control for a company that manufactures LED displays. The factory you are assessing is supposed to have a manufacturing defect rate of 1 in 100 LED displays. As part of your assessment, you want to verify this defect rate by analyzing a random sample of LED displays. You are planning to randomly sample 1500 displays from this factory and observe how many of them contain manufacturing defects. Let Zi be equal to 1 if the i’th display has a defect and 0 otherwise, for i = 1,...,1500. (a) What is the statistic that you will use to estimate the defect rate for this factory? How do you compute it using Z1, Z2, . . . , Z1500? (b) Assuming that the true defect rate for this factory is in fact 1 in 100 displays, can we approximate the sampling distribution of the statistic that you selected in part (a) using a normal distribution? Please state and check the requirements for applying the approximation, and identify the mean and standard deviation of the normal…
