For the following exercise, determine the range (possible values) of the random variable, X. A batch of 300 machined parts contains 10 that do not conform to customer requirements. The random variable is the number of parts in a sample of 5 parts that do not conform to customer requirements. Choose the correct answer.

a. The range of X is {0,1,2,3,4,5,6}
b. The range of X is {0,1,2,3,4,5,6}
c. The range of X is {0,1,2,3,4,5,6}
d. The range of X is {0,1,2,3,4,5,6}
e. The range of X is {0,1,2,3,4,5,6}

Answer:

{0,1,2,3,4,5}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Total number of  machine parts=300

Number of defective machine parts=10

Total number of good machine parts=300-10=290

Sample contain parts that do not conform to customer requirement=5

X  is a random variable which is the number of parts in a sample of 5 parts that do not conform to customer requirements.

We have to find the correct answer.

The sample contain 5 parts

Therefore, the possible values of random variable X

0,1,2,3,4,5

Hence, the range of X is given by

{0,1,2,3,4,5}
