Regarding control charts, changing from two-sigma limits to three-sigma limits: increases the probability of concluding nothing has changed, when in fact it has. increases the probability of searching for a cause when none exists. decreases the probability that the process average will change. decreases the probability that defects will be generated by the process.

In each of the cases that follow, the magnitude of a vector is given along with the counterclockwise angle it makes with the +x axis. use trigonometry to find the x and y components of the vector. also, sketch each vector approximately to scale to see if your calculated answers seem reasonable. (a) 50.0 n at 60.0°, (b) 75 m/ s at 5π/ 6 rad, (c) 254 lb at 325°, (d) 69 km at 1.1π rad.

There are three bags: a (contains 2 white and 4 red balls), b (8 white, 4 red) and c (1 white 3 red). you select one ball at random from each bag, observe that exactly two are white, but forget which ball came from which bag. what is the probability that you selected a white ball from bag a?

Data from 2005 for various age groups show that for each $100 increase in the median weekly income for whites, the median weekly income of blacks increases by $105. also, for workers of ages 25 to 54 the median weekly income for whites was $676 and for blacks was $527. (a) let w represent the median weekly income for whites and b the median weekly income for blacks, and write the equation of the line that gives b as a linear function of w. b = (b) when the median weekly income for whites is $760, what does the equation in (a) predict for the median weekly income for blacks?
