Problem
Three times each day, a quality engineer samples a component from a recently manufactured batch and tests it. Each part is classified as conforming (suitable for its intended use), downgraded (unsuitable for the intended purpose but usable for another purpose), or scrap (not usable). An experiment consists of recording the categories of the three parts tested in a particular day.
a. List the 27 outcomes in the sample space.
b. Let A be the event that all the parts fall into the same category. List the outcomes in A.
c. Let B be the event that there is one part in each category. List the outcomes in B.
d. Let C be the event that at least two parts are conforming. List the outcomes in C.
e. List the outcomes in A ∩ C.
f. List the outcomes in A ∪ B.
g. List the outcomes in A ∩ Cc.
h. List the outcomes in Ac ∩ C.
i. Are events A and C mutually exclusive? Explain.
j. Are events B and C mutually exclusive? Explain.
Stepbystep solution
Let conforming is denoted by C, downgraded is denoted by D, and scrap is denoted by S.

Problem
A drag racer has two parachutes, a main and a backup, that are designed to bring the vehicle to a stop after the end of a run. Suppose that the main chute deploys with probability 0.99, and that if the main fails to deploy, the backup deploys with probability 0.98.
a. What is the probability that one of the two parachutes deploys?
b. What is the probability that the backup parachutes deploys?
Stepbystep solution
(a) Let A denote the event that a main parachute deploys and let B denote the event that a backup parachute deploys. We are given the following probabilities:
Comment
The event that one of the parachutes deploys is a complement to the event that none of the parachutes deploy. Find .
Comment
(b) By the law of total probability,
If a main parachute deploys, the probability that a backup parachute deploys is equal to 0, that is . Thus,

Problem
A lot of 1000 components contains 300 that are defective. Two components are drawn at random and tested. Let A be the event that the first component drawn is defective, and let B be the event that the second component drawn is defective.
a. Find P(A).
b. Find P(B|A) .
c. Find P(A ∩ B).
d. Find P(Ac ∩ B).
e. Find P(B) .
f. Find P(A|B).
g. Are Aand B independent? Is it reasonable to treat A and B as though they were independent? Explain.
Stepbystep solution
24. (a) P(A) = 300/1000 = 3/10
Comment
(b) Given that A occurs, there are 999 components remaining, of which 299 are defective. Therefore P(B|A) = 299/999.

(g) A and B are not independent, but they are very nearly independent. To see this note that P(B) = 0.3, while P(B|A) = 0.2993. So P(B) is very nearly equal to P(B|A), but not exactly equal. Alternatively, note that Therefore in most situations it would be reasonable to treat A and B as though they were independent.

Problem
Three components are randomly sampled, one at a time, from a large lot. As each component is selected, it is tested. If it passes the test, a success (S) occurs; if it fails the test, a failure (F) occurs. Assume that 80% of the components in the lot will succeed in passing the test. Let X represent the number of successes among the three sampled components.
a. What are the possible values for X?
b. Find P(X = 3).
c. The event that the first component fails and the next two succeed is denoted by FSS. Find P(FSS)
d. FindP(SFS) and P(SSF).

Problem
A quality engineer takes a random sample of 100 steel rods from a day's production, and finds that 92 of them meet specifications.
a. Estimate the proportion of that day's production that meets specifications, and find the uncertainty in the estimate.
b. Estimate the number of rods that must be sampled to reduce the uncertainty to 1%.
Stepbystep solution
10. Let X be the number of rods in the sample that meet specifications, and let p be the proportion of the day's production that meets specifications. Then X ~ Bin(100, p). The observed value of X is 92.
(a)
Replacing p with and n with 100,

(b) We must find n so that
Substitute for p to obtain Solving for n yields n = 736.

Problem
A data center contains 1000 computer servers. Each server has probability 0.003 of failing on a given day.
a. What is the probability that exactly two servers fail?
b. What is the probability that fewer than 998 servers function?
c. What is the mean number of servers that fail?
d. What is the standard deviation of the number of servers that fail?
Stepbystep solution
(a)
The probability of failing a server on a given day is and there are total computer servers. The mean number of fail per day is:
Let X denotes number of servers fail.
Here, the random variable X follows Poisson distribution with parameter
The probability function for the Poisson random variable is,
