An automated egg carton loader has a 1% probability of cracking an egg (for each egg loaded). Suppose that you continue to inspect cartons (containing one dozen eggs) until you find 3 cartons that have fewer than 2 cracked eggs. Find the probabiliy that you will have to inspect 7 cartons in total.

Question 3 An automated egg carton loader has a 3% probability of cracking an egg, and a customer will complain if 1 or more eggs are cracked. Assume each egg load is an independent event. What is the probability that a box of a 12 eggs results in a complaint? a. o.25 b. 0.31 c. 0.47 d. 0.73
These are all part of the same question if you cant answer them all dont asnwer at all. I will thumbsdown. thanks Let y denote the number of broken eggs in a randomly selected carton of one dozen eggs. Suppose that the probability distribution of v is as follows У01234 p(y) 0.64 0.20 0.11 0.04? (a) Only y values of 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 have positive probabilities. What is p(4)? (Hint: Consider the properties of a discrete probability...
i need help thank you 1. A shopping mall estimates the probability distribution of the number of stores mall customers actually enter, as shown in the table x 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 P(x) 0.05 0.07 0.12 0.15 0.2 0.13 0.11 0.1 0.07 a. Find the mean and standard deviation of the number of stores entered. (10%) b. Refer to Question a Suppose that, on average, customers spend 10 in each store they enter. Find the...
1. Coal is carried from a mine in West Virginia to a power plant in New York in hopper cars on a long train. The automatic hopper car loader is set to put 76 tons of coal into each car. The actual weights of coal loaded into each car are normally distributed, with mean μ = 76 tons and standard deviation σ = 0.5 ton. (a) What is the probability that one car chosen at random will have less than...
Suppose that you own a bakery that sells cookies. Each cookie has a marginal and average cost of $1, there are no fixed costs. You notice that all of your customers have the same demand curve for cookies given by p=5 - Q Compute the optimal single price to charge for cookies. How many cookies does each customer purchase? How much profit does your bakery make per customer? What is the consumer surplus at the price and quantity you found...
1. Find z such that 70% of the standard normal curve lies between −z and z. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) 2. The Customer Service Center in a large New York department store has determined that the amount of time spent with a customer about a complaint is normally distributed, with a mean of 9.3 minutes and a standard deviation of 2.3 minutes. What is the probability that for a randomly chosen customer with a complaint, the amount...
please answer all 1. (a) A certain species of bird always lays 3 eggs in the spring, but it is not guaranteed that all of the eggs it lays will hatch. Scientists think that a model for the nunber, X, of eggs that hatch has a probability distribution given by 0 where θ is a parameter to be estimated. i) Given that at least one egg hatches, determine the probability that all three eggs in a nest hatch. 2 marks...
a. Coal is carried from a mine in West Virginia to a power plant in New York in hopper cars on a long train. The automatic hopper car loader is set to put 75 tons of coal into each car. The actual weights of coal loaded into each car are normally distributed, with mean μ = 75 tons and standard deviation σ = 1.6 ton. (a) What is the probability that one car chosen at random will have less than...
A city ballot includes a local initiative that would legalize gambling. The issue is hotly contested, and two groups decide to conduct polls to predict the outcome. The local newspaper finds that 53% of 1600 randomly selected voters plan to vote "yes," while a college Statistics class finds 54% of 350 randomly selected voters in support. Both groups will create 95% confidence intervals. Assume that all voters know how they intend to vote and that the initiative requires a majority...
AP-Stats-2005-Q2 2. Let the random variable X represent the number of telephone lines in use by the technical support center of a manufacturer at noon each day. The probability distribution of X is shown in the table below P(x) 0.35 0.20 0.15 0.15 0.10 0.05 ) Suppose you come by every day at noon to see how many lines are in use. What are the chances that you don't find all 5 in use until your 7" visit? ) Find...
