In a random sample of 200 cars of a particular model,
3 have a manufacturing defect. At this rate, how
many of 10,000 cars of the same model will have a
manufacturing defect?
A) 150
B) 200
C) 250
D) 300

Respuesta :

By using proportions, We expect 150 defects out of the 10,000 cars if the 3 defects out of the 200 cars sampled is representative of all 10,000 cars.

Option A is correct.

First, let's set up the proportions.

A proportion is an equation in which two ratios are set equal to each other.

We have 3/200 cars with defects and we want to know X for X/10000.

So 3/200 = X/10000

Now solve for X.

3/200 = X/10000

X = [tex]\frac{3}{200} \times 10000[/tex]

X = 150

So the answer is: We expect 150 defects out of the 10,000 cars if the 3 defects out of the 200 cars sampled is representative of all 10,000 cars.

Option A is correct.
