Exercise 1 (5 points)

A large cosmetics brand launches a new moisturizing cream.
Part A: Packaging of jars
This brand wishes to sell the new cream in a 50 mL package and has jars with a maximum capacity of 55 mL for this purpose.
A jar of cream is said to be non-compliant if it contains less than 49 mL of cream.
  1. Several series of tests lead to modeling the quantity of cream, expressed in mL, contained in each jar by a random variable $X$ which follows the normal distribution with mean $\mu = 50$ and standard deviation $\sigma = 1.2$. Calculate the probability that a jar of cream is non-compliant.
  2. The proportion of non-compliant jars of cream is judged to be too large. By modifying the viscosity of the cream, we can change the value of the standard deviation of the random variable $X$, without modifying its mean $\mu = 50$. We want to reduce to 0.06 the probability that a randomly chosen jar is non-compliant. We denote $\sigma ^ { \prime }$ the new standard deviation, and $Z$ the random variable equal to $\frac { X - 50 } { \sigma ^ { \prime } }$ a. Specify the distribution followed by the random variable $Z$. b. Determine an approximate value of the real number $u$ such that $p ( Z \leqslant u ) = 0.06$. c. Deduce the expected value of $\sigma ^ { \prime }$.
  3. A shop orders 50 jars of this new cream from its supplier.

We consider that the work on the viscosity of the cream has made it possible to achieve the set objective and therefore that the proportion of non-compliant jars in the sample is 0.06. Let $Y$ be the random variable equal to the number of non-compliant jars among the 50 jars received. a. We admit that $Y$ follows a binomial distribution. Give its parameters. b. Calculate the probability that the shop receives two non-compliant jars or fewer than two non-compliant jars.
Part B: Advertising campaign
A consumer association decides to estimate the proportion of people satisfied by the use of this cream. It conducts a survey among people using this product. Out of 140 people interviewed, 99 declare themselves satisfied. Estimate, by confidence interval at the 95\% threshold, the proportion of satisfied people among the users of the cream.

A jar of cream is said to be non-compliant if it contains less than 49 mL of cream.

\begin{enumerate}
  \item Several series of tests lead to modeling the quantity of cream, expressed in mL, contained in each jar by a random variable $X$ which follows the normal distribution with mean $\mu = 50$ and standard deviation $\sigma = 1.2$.\\
Calculate the probability that a jar of cream is non-compliant.
  \item The proportion of non-compliant jars of cream is judged to be too large. By modifying the viscosity of the cream, we can change the value of the standard deviation of the random variable $X$, without modifying its mean $\mu = 50$.
