Question 1

What does λ stand for in Poisson distribution for quality control?

  • Defect Rate
  • Quality Index
  • Production Time

💡 Hint: Recall what λ defines in the context of defects.

Question 2

True or False: The Poisson distribution can only model defects in manufacturing.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider other fields where counts of events can be random.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A factory claims that, on average, 1 in every 20 products is defective (λ=0.05). If they produce 1000 units, what’s the probability that less than 10 units are defective?

💡 Hint: Calculate for each k using cumulative probability.

Question 2

If a company observes on average 10 defects per 500 items, how does this defect rate influence their production strategies?

💡 Hint: Consider how defect rates can inform resource allocation and process improvements.
