Answer #1

given data and necessary calculations are:-

sample size (n) = 200

sample proportion () = 12/200 = 0.06

z critical value for 90% confidence level, both tailed test be:-

the 90% confidence interval of the proportion of defectives be:-

Afra can be 90% confident that the the pecenatge of all defective products in that factory will be within  3.24 % to 8.76 % .

*** if you have any doubts about the problem please mention it in the comment box... if satisfied please LIKE.

A factory tests all its products. The proportion of defective items is 0.01. The probability that the test will catch a defective product is 0.95. The test will also reject nondefective products with probability 0.01. Given that a product passes the test, what is the probability that it is defective? (b) Given that the product does not pass the test, what is the probability that the product is defective?
