Q

What is a control chart?

A

A chart used to control quality by setting upper and lower control limits on a variable (plotted along y-axis) and keeping the points of that graph within those bounds

Q

Mechanistic models are…?

A

… based on physical principles & theories and built from our underlying knowledge. Example: Ohm’s Law.

Q

Random Experiment (define)

A

Experiment where you have no control over the outcome. A dice roll is a good example, a coin flip is not (why tho).

Q

The lowest possible value of probability is…?

A

0, which indicates impossibility.

17
Q

When and how do you apply the Multiplication Rule (counting techniques)?

A

When you want to find the total number of possible combinations; by multiplying every ‘set’ of events.

18
Q

When and how would you use the Permutation Rule?

A

When the problem asks for combination where order matters. It’s like a more advanced version of Multi-Rule. We use factorials for this one.

19
Q

When and how would you use the Combination Rule?

A

We use this to find the number of possible values and we don’t care about order.

20
Q

Equation of Permutation Rule

A

n!/(n-k)!

21
Q

Equation of Combination Rule

A

n!/[(n-k)!k!]
