Quality control. As part of a quality control process for computer chips, an engineer at a factory randomly samples 212 chips during a week of production to test the current rate of chips with severe defects. She finds that 27 of the chips are defective. (a) What population is under consideration in the data set?
(b) What parameter is being estimated?
(c) What is the point estimate for the parameter?
(d) What is the name of the statistic can we use to measure the uncertainty of the point estimate?
(e) Compute the value from part (d) for this context.
(f) The historical rate of defects is 10%. Should the engineer be surprised by the observed rate of defects
during the current week?
(g) Suppose the true population value was found to be 10%. If we use this proportion to recompute the value in part (e) using p = 0.1 instead of pˆ, does the resulting value change much?

Hye ryung is the president of the local chapter of the american medical students association (amsa). she is organizing local outreach and informational meetings. at her first meeting there are five people present (including herself). every month after that her group grows by 5 people. a. how many members are in the group after 6 months? b. the logistics of hosting and feeding her group at meetings was more complicated than expected. the cost of feeding 5 people at her first meeting was $30, for 10 people it was $35, for 15 it was $45, and after 6 months all of the costs had added up to $100. write a function to model the cost with the number of people attending meetings. c. what connections can you make between the linear growth of the group’s membership and the increasing costs of running meetings?
