CHAPTER 8 SECTION 1: CONTINUOUS PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTIONS MULTIPLE CHOICE 1. Which of the following represents a difference between continuous and discrete random variables? a. Continuous random variables assume an uncountable number of values‚ and discrete random variables do not. b. The probability for any individual value of a continuous random variable is zero‚ but for discrete random variables it is not. c. Probability for continuous random variables means finding the area under a

Continuous improvement is a process of the seeking of small improvements in processes and products‚ with the objective of increasing quality and reducing waste. Continuous improvement is one of the tools that underpin the philosophies of total quality management and lean production. Through constant study and revision of processes‚ a better product can result at reduced cost. Kaizen (the translation of kai (“change”) zen (“good”) is “improvement” or “change for the better”) has become a foundation

Since the beginning of time‚ information has always been considered a good thing‚ a means to grow‚ and a way to develop and sustain culture. In the past‚ information had often been considered scarce‚ and truly a privilege to have. Now‚ information is being produced and received at a rapid rate. Humans cannot process as much information as the amount continuously flowing in. We are in a state of information surplus‚ an era of information overload. According to Lehtonen‚ information discrepancy
