a

Summary Introduction

Interpretation:

Effect on optimal value of n and k is to be determined if δ increased from 1 to 2.

Concept Introduction:

Probability is the likelihood of an event to occur.. It ranges between 0 to 1. O implies no chance of occurance while 1 implies 100% chance of occurance.

b

Summary Introduction

Interpretation:

Effect on optimal value of n and k is to be determined if π increased from 0.05 to 0.10.

Concept Introduction:

Probability Distribution Function is a likelihood of an event to occur for discrete random variables. Graphically, it shows how likely variables will fall under the probability area.

Exponential distribution is a probabilitydistribution which finds probability of an event to occur between independent constant rate and continous rate.

c

Summary Introduction

Interpretation:

Effect on optimal value of n and k is to be determined if a1 decreased to 1.

Concept Introduction:

Exponential distribution is a probabilitydistribution which finds probability of an event to occur between independent constant rate and continous rate.

Summary Introduction

Interpretation:

Effect on optimal value of n and k is to be determined if a2 increased to 150.

A machine cuts circular filters from large rolls of material. The diameters of the filters are normally distributed with a mean of 2.00 cm and a standard deviation of 0.02 cm. Specifications call for the filters to have diameters between 1.95 cm and 2.03 cm. What percent of production does not meet specifications
