Is Saturn tangie still around?

I need her help with a math problem.

"If 4% of the manufactured parts are defective, calculate the probability that the sample of 450 parts contains 45 or more defective parts."

I'm having trouble with this one. I changed the numbers so you guys can do it without just giving me the answer, don't worry. Thanks

If parts are from China, the probability is 100%.

Re: Is Saturn tangie still around?

So, I know I saw a response previously about calculating 4% of the total product... and I know there was a response to that saying that wasn't it. I'm not strong in stats (only had to take 1 in school) so all I can say is that 4% is far less than the 45 stated in the problem (10%). I have no idea where you need to go from there.

Re: Is Saturn tangie still around?

Dizamn, if Tangie doesn't know then you might be in bad shape. What type of operation is this? Despite my hatred of my statistics/production mgmt/business analysis classes, I do remember some stuff. I'll help out if its something I still have stored inside that walnut that rattles around in my skull.

When is this due anyway???

It was due last week. No worries, I got it figured out. I had to calculate the standard deviation, which for some reason I didn't realize I was able to do before.

Re: Is Saturn tangie still around?

Z score tables? Those would confuse me because I could never remember which one I was supposed to be using in a given situation. And when I finally figured that part out, I would routinely interpret the table wrong. Yeah, I think you were better off without my 'help'
