Answer:
- If the sum is 6, a small cone will be ordered.
- If the sum is 8 or 9, a medium cone will be ordered.
- If the sum is 11, a large cone will be ordered.
Step-by-step explanation:
The table below shows the possible outcomes from drawing two balls. We see the relative frequencies to be ...
6: 4
8: 2
9: 2
11: 4
To make a fair decision, we want the relative frequencies of the decision possibilities to be the same. If we combine sums 8 and 9 to one category (medium cone, for example), then 6, (8 or 9), and 11 will all have the same relative frequency: 4.
The appropriate "fair decision" choice is ...
6: small cone
8 or 9: medium cone
11: large cone

Answer:
The number of times it would take more than 27 minutes to manufacture a pair of running shoes is 2.275 times or approximately 2 times per every 100 shoes
Step-by-step explanation:
The average time it takes to manufacture a pair of shoes = 21 minutes;
The standard deviation = 3 minutes
To find how often it takes more than 27 minutes to manufacture a pair of running shoes, we have;
Standard score, given as follows;
Where;
x = The raw score = 27 minutes
μ = The average score = 21 minutes
σ = The standard deviation = 3 minutes
From which we have;
Therefore, it is borderline unusual with a p value of P(z>2) = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275
Therefore, the number of times out of 100 that it would take more than 27 minutes to manufacture a pair of running shoes = 100 × 0.02275 = 2.275 times which is approximately 2 times in every 100 shoes.
