4- (d) State two conditions under which a random variable can be modelled by a binomial
distribution.

In the production ofa certain eleckonic component it is found that l0% are defective.
(D) Write down a suitable model for the distribution of defective components in a batch.

A supplier buys 100 components. The supplier will receive a refund ifthere are more than 15
defective components.
ff) Using a suitable approximation, find the probability that the supplier will receive a refund.
The number ofbreakdowns per day in a large fleet ofhire cars has a Poisson distribution with
mean *.

(c) Find the probability that during a 14-day period there are at most 4 breakdowns.

The cars are maintained at a garage. The garage introduced a weekly check to try to decrease
the
number of cars that break down. In a randomly selected 28-day period aftei the checks
are
inhoduced, only I hire car broke down.
(@ Test, at the 5Yo level of significance, whether or not the mean number of breakdowns has
decreased. State your hypotheses clearly.

(a) Suggest a suitable model for the distribution ofthe number ofdefects
in this make ofcarpet.
Give a reason for your answer.
A carpet fitter has a contract to fit this carpet in a small hotel. The hotel
foyer requires 30 m2 of
this carpet. Find the probability that the foyer carpet contains

The carpet fitter orders a total of355 m2 ofthe carpet for the whole hotel.
(4 Using a suitable approximation, find the probability that this total area
of carpet contains 22
or more defects.
