Solved: During a manufacturing process, 15 units are

Chapter 7, Problem 5.77

(choose chapter or problem)

During a manufacturing process, 15 units are randomly selected each day from the production line to check the percent defective. From historical information it is known that the probability of a defective unit is 0.05. Any time 2 or more defectives are found in the sample of 15, the process is stopped. This procedure is used to provide a signal in case the probability of a defective has increased. (a) What is the probability that on any given day the production process will be stopped? (Assume 5% defective.) (b) Suppose that the probability of a defective has increased to 0.07. What is the probability that on any given day the production process will not be stopped?
