It is known that 63% of all the ZeroCal hamburger patties produced by your factory actually contain more than 1,000 calories. Compute the probability distribution for n = 50 Bernoulli trials. (a) What is the most likely value for the number of burgers in a sample of 50 that contain more than 1,000 calories? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

In a recent year, the Better Business Bureau settled 75% of complaints they received. You have been hired by the Bureau to investigate complaints this year involving computer stores. You plan to select a random sample of complaints to estimate the proportion of complaints the Bureau is able to settle. Suppose your sample size is 288. What is the probability that the sample proportion will be at most 4 percent more than the population proportion?
Based on historical data, your manager believes that 34% of the company's orders come from first-time customers. A random sample of 175 orders will be used to estimate the proportion of first-time-customers. What is the probability that the sample proportion is less than 0.33?
A recent study has shown that approximately 31.6% of Canadians are considered 'supertasters,' or people who experience the sense of taste with greater intensity than average. Consider a sample of 23 Canadians, each of whom are asked to indicate if they are a supertaster or not. Please use this information to answer the following questions.a. Suppose you know that at least 7 of the Canadians sampled are supertasters. What is the probability that exactly 15 of the Canadians sampled are supertasters?Answer:______________Round to at least FOUR digits after the decimal if necessary. b. What is the probability that the 10th Canadian sampled is the sixth person to indicate that they are a supertaster?Answer:______________Do NOT round your answer; give all the decimals.
(This is a introduction to statistics course) From past records, a department store finds that 70% of the people who enter the store will make a purchase on Black Friday. Suppose that 3 customers are randomly selected at the store, answer the following questions: 1) What is the chance that exactly one out of three customers make a purchase? Give your answer (%) rounded to one decimal place. (For example, if your answer is 0.5125 (51.25%), then it will be 51.3% after being rounded to one decimal place.) 2) Explain clearly.
