In proof testing of circuit boards, the probability that any particular diode will fail is 0.01. Suppose a circuit board contains 170 diodes.

(a) How many diodes would you expect to fail?


What is the standard deviation of the number that are expected to fail?


(b) What is the (approximate) probability that at least four diodes will fail on a randomly selected board? (Use binomial approximation.)


(c) If five boards are shipped to a particular customer, how likely is it that at least four of them will work properly? (A board works properly only if all its diodes work.)

In proof testing of circuit boards, the probability that any particular diode will fail is 0.01. Suppose a circuit board contains 200 diodes. (a) How many diodes would you expect to fail? What is the standard deviation of the number that are expected to fail? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) (b) What is the (approximate) probability that at least four diodes will fail on a randomly selected board? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Exercise 12.8.1: Probability of manufacturing defects. The probability that a circuit board produced by a particular manufacturer has a defect is 1%. You can assume that errors are independent, so the event that one circuit board has a defect is independent of whether a different circuit board has a defect. (a) What is the probability that out of 100 circuit boards made exactly 2 have defects? (b) What is the probability that out of 100 circuit boards made at least...

1a.Human visual inspection of solder joints on printed circuit boards can be very subjective. Part of the problem stems from the numerous types of solder defects (e.g., pad non-wetting, knee visibility, voids) and even the degree to which a joint possesses one or more of these defects. Consequently, even highly trained inspectors can disagree on the disposition of a particular joint. In one batch of 10,000 joints, inspector A found 732 that were judged defective, inspector B found 740 such...

Mattel Responds to Ethical Challenges Business Ethics This case was written by Debbie Thorne, John Fraedrich, O. C. Ferrell, and Jennifer Jackson, with the editorial assistance of Jennifer Sawayda. This case was developed for classroom discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective handling of an administrative, ethical, or legal discussion by management. All sources used for this case were obtained through publicly available material. Mattel, Inc. is a world leader in the design, manufacture, and marketing of family...
