Assume that shoes are produced in three countries: 20 percent in Chile, 30 percent in Korea, and 50 percent in New Zealand. At the plant in each country, two types of shoes are made: racing shoes and training shoes. The production at each plant as allocated as shown in the table below. The shoes are randomly distributed to stores in the United States, and you purchase one pair from one of these stores. Plant Racing Training Chile 0.7 0.3 Korea 0.6 0.4 New Zealand 0.3 0.7 If you purchase a pair of training shoes selected at random, what is the probability that they were made in Chile?

A large industrial firm uses 3 local motels to provide overnight accommodations for its clients. From past experience it is known that 20% of the clients are assigned rooms at the Ramada Inn, 50% at the Sheraton, and 30% at the Lakeview Motor Lodge. If the plumbing is faulty in 25% of the rooms at the Ramada Inn, in 35% of the rooms at the Sheraton, and in 40% of the rooms at the Lakeview Motor lodge, what is the probability that (a) a client will be assigned a room with faulty plumbing? (b) a person with a room having faulty plumbing was assigned accommodations at the Lakeview Motor Lodge? (c) a person with a room having no faulty plumbing was assigned accommodations at the Lakeview Motor Lodge? Round off the final answer to five decimal places.

In your biology class, your final grade is based on four categories. The categories are tests, labs, homework assignments, and a final exam. The final average for the course is the weighted average of scores earned in these categories with the following weights. Assignments Weights Tests 29% Course Average: Labs 9% Homework 16% Final Exam 46% Suppose you earned the following grades on each of the categories; 51% on tests, 57% on labs, 56% on homework assignments, and 85% on the final exam. Determine your weighted average in the course. Record the average below as a percentage accurate to two decimal places.
A dairy farmer thinks that the average weight gain of his cows depends on two factors: the type of grain that they are fed and the type of grass that they are fed. The dairy farmer has four different types of grain from which to choose and three different types of grass from which to choose. He would like to determine if there is a particular combination of grain and grass that would lead to the greatest weight gain on average for his cows. He randomly selects three one-year-old cows and assigns them to each of the possible combinations of grain and grass. After one year he records the weight gain for each cow (in pounds) with the following results. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference in the average weight gains among the cows for the different types of grain?

In a biology class, the final grade is based on several things: a lab score, scores on two major tests, and score on the final exam. There are 100 points available for each score. However, the lab score is worth 25% of the total grade, each major test is worth 22.5%, and the final exam is worth 30%. Compute the weighted average for the following scores: 92 on the lab, 81 on the first major test, 93 on the second major test, and 85 on the final exa
A manufacturing plant makes computer chips 24 hours a day. Employees work one of three, 8 hour shifts during the morning (2am-10am), day (10am-6pm), and night (6pm-2am). Below are data on the number of defective chips on a randomly chosen 24 hour period. Shift Morning Day Night Number of Defective Chips 23 26 47 Total Chips Manufactured 330 330 330 The plant manager thinks there might be more defective computer chips manufactured during the night shift compared to the day shift. Give appropriate statistical evidence to test the managers' claim.
A researcher wishes to try three different techniques to lower the blood pressure of students diagnosed with high blood pressure in the school sickbay. The subjects are randomly assigned to three groups; the first group takes medication from the school nurse, the second group takes exercises led by the school sports master, and the third group follows a special diet from the school pantry. After four weeks, the reduction in each person’s blood pressure is recorded in the table below.

A car wash has three different types of washes: basic, classic, and ultimate. Based on records, 45% of customers get the basic wash, 35% get the classic wash, and 20% get the ultimate wash. Some customers also vacuum out their cars after the wash. The car wash records show that 10% of customers who get the basic wash, 25% of customers who get the classic wash, and 60% of customers who get the ultimate wash also vacuum their cars. The probabilities are displayed in the tree diagram.What is the probability that a randomly selected customer purchases the basic or classic car wash if they vacuum their car?A) 0.13B) 0.48C) 0.52D) 0.80
