Suppose a dresser drawer has blue shirts, yellow shirts, red shirts, and green shirts so that if a shirt is pulled from the drawer at random, each color has an equal chance of being drawn. P(Green) = P(Blue) = P(Red) = P(Yellow) = ¼. Complete parts (a) – (d) to create a probability distribution for the number of yellow shirts if two shirts are pulled from the drawer at random (replacing the shirt after each draw). a. List each possible outcome for the colors of the shirts if two shirts are drawn randomly from the drawer. The teacher said there should be total of 16 outcomes, not 9 or 10. In my original answer, I have 10 outcomes when there should be 16. c.Find the probability of each event (not the probability from each outcome) from part (b). For my first answer, I had the probability of each outcome, and I should have the probability of each event.
In a 24-hour call center, complaints arrive at a mean rate of 1 complaint every 3 hours. (a) Find the probability that there are at most 3 complaints in the past 10 hours. (b) A day is “doomed” if there are at least 6 complaints. Each day, an inspector counts the number of complaints at the end of the day and determines whether the day was doomed. Find the probability that the inspector has worked for 7 days when he records the 3rd doomed day. (c) Find the probability that there are at least 2 complaints in the past 12 hours given that there are at most 5 complaints in the past 12 hours
