A bakery has determined that the number of loaves of its white bread demanded daily has a normal distribution with mean 7,200 loaves and standard deviation 300 loaves. Based on cost considerations, the company has decided that its best strategy is to produce a sufficient number of loaves so that it will fully supply demand on 94% of all days. a. How many loaves of bread should the company produce? b. Based on the production in part (a), on what percentage of days will the company be left with more than 500 loaves of unsold bread?

Consider a city where everyone commutes to the city center and commuting cost per mile per month is $40. Each household occupies a 1,000-square-foot dwelling and has $7,000 worth of possessions in its dwelling. The probability that any particular household will be burglarized (involving the uninsured loss of all possessions) is 0.10 at the city center and decreases by 0.01 per mile (to 0.09 at one mile, 0.08 at two miles, and so on). The housing price is $1.00 per square foot at the city center. a) Draw the housing-price curve for locations up to five miles from the city center.

According to a 2017 Wired magazine article, 40% of e-mails that are received are tracked using software that can tell the e-mail sender when, where, and on what type of device the e-mail was opened (Wired magazine website). Suppose we randomly select 50 received e-mails. a. What is the expected number of these e-mails that are tracked? b. What are the variance (to the nearest whole number) and standard deviation (to 3 decimals) for the number of these e-mails that are tracked? Variance Standard deviation
