Entomologists estimate that an average person consumed almost a pound of bug parts each year. There are that many insect eggs, l

arvae, and miscellaneous body pieces in the food we eat and the liquids we drink. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sets a Food Defect Action Level (FDAL) for each product. For example, the legal limit for peanut butter is 30 insect fragments per 100 grams. You just bought the crackers with 25 grams of peanut butter. What is the probability that the snack will include at least 3 crunchy critters

Answer:

0.9797

Step-by-step explanation:

We have X = number of insects in the 25bgrams of butter

Then the legal limit of concentration in peanut butter = 30 fragments/ 100 grams

Then insect amount in 25 grams =

E(X) = 30/100 x 25

= 0.3 x 25

= 7.5 fragments of insects

Using the poisson function in Excel, the probability of at least 3 crunchy critters

1 - p(X<=2)

p(X<=2) = POISSON (2, 7.5, TRUE) = 0.020156715

1 - 0.020156715

= 0.9797
