Let X = r.v. representing the # of defects.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Then mean is \"mu+=+E%28X%29+=+np+=+500%2A0.09++=45\", variance is \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"sigma%5E2+=+npq+=+500%2A0.09%2A0.91++=40.95\", and standard deviation is\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"sigma+=+sqrt%2840.95%29+=+%283sqrt%28455%29%29%2F10++=6.4\" to the nearest tenth.
