A company receives complaints about their product bending and needs to determine how many faulty products are going undetected The company uses a scanning device that places a mark on each defective product that it detects on the production line. However not all defective products are detected by the scanner, and sometimes it marks a product which is not defective. When a product is not defective, the scanner marks it 5% of the time. When a product is defective, the scanner marks it 98% of the time. The quality control department reports that 4% of all products are defective. Which option will calculate the probability that the product is marked?

Tuff Rubbers, a tire manufacturer, knows that 5% of the tires it produces are defective. To reduce the number of defective tires that make it to market, the manufacturer uses a special device to test each tire before shipping it out. The test will correctly detect a defective tire 97% of the time. However, the test will incorrectly indicate a good quality tire is defective 6% of the time. If the test indicates a tire is defective, the tire is recycled. Otherwise, the tire makes it to market. Let D represent the event a tire is defective, and T represent the event the test indicates a tire is defective. In each part of this question, express each probability only in terms of the events D and T and justify any computation by explicitly stating the formula you are using. (a) Express each of the three probabilities listed above in terms of the events D and T. (b) What percentage of tires are recycled? (c) What percentage of recycled tires are not defective? (d) What percentage of…
show step by step and answer all questions The 102 highway has a posted speed limit of 70 miles per hour on the stretch from San Francisco to Bay Area. For a single week, the highway patrol set up a hidden radar gun to measure how many cars break the speed limit after having numerous reports of accidents on this stretch of highway. The highway patrol needs to put together an action plan if the annual proportion of vehicles who break the speed limit is over 9%. However, they could only set up the radar gun for one week. Question-The sampling method used for this situation would most likely be considered 'convenience sampling.' Find a potential fault, bais, or hidden variable in the way this sample was conducted that might skew the results. -What is the sample size,What is the proportion of vehicles who broke the speed limit over this 1 week period from Bay Area to San Francisco? -Construct a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of vehicles who break the speed limit annually. -Is…

A certain county had a population of 34,485 people. The county hospital is interested in estimating the number of people in the county with blood type-O. To do this, they test blood samples from 228 patients. Out of this group, 10 have blood type-O. Use this sample to estimate the number of people in the county with blood type-O.

Suppose Laura, a facilities manager at a health and wellness company, wants to estimate the difference in the average amount of time that men and women spend at the company's fitness centers each week. Laura randomly selects 15 adult male fitness center members from the membership database and then selects 15 adult female members from the database. Laura gathers data from the past month containing logged time at the fitness center for these members. She plans to use the data to estimate the difference in the time men and women spend per week at the fitness center. The sample statistics are summarized in the table. Population Populationdescription Population mean(unknown) Samplesize Sample mean(min) Sample standarddeviation (min) 11 male μ1 n=15 x¯1=137.7 s=51.7 22 female μ2 n=15 x¯2=114.6 s=34.2 df=24.283 The population standard deviations are unknown and unlikely to be equal, based on the sample data. Laura plans to use the two-sample ?-t-procedures to estimate the…
