- (Devore: Section 2.3 #41) An ATM personal identification number (PIN) consists of four digits, each a 0, 1, 2, ..., 8 or 9, in succession. (a) How many different possible PINs are there if there are no restrictions on the choice of digits? (b) According to a representative at the author's local branch of Chase Bank, there are in fact restrictions on the choice of digits. The following choices are prohibited: (i) all four digits identical (ii) sequences of consecutive ascending or descending digits, such as 6543 (iii) any sequence starting with 19 (birth years are too easy to guess). So if one of the PINs in (a) is randomly selected, what is the probability that it will be a legitimate PIN (that is, not be one of the prohibited sequences)? (c) Someone has stolen an ATM card and knows that the first and last digits of the PIN are 8 and 1, respectively. He has three tries before the card is retained by the ATM (but does not realize that). So he randomly selects the 2nd and 3rd digits for…arrow_forwardNonearrow_forwardTennis balls are randomly toss into one of five trays.

- In a cooking competition called Heaven's Kitchen, two teams compete against each other to serve a restaurant full of customers. The competitors cook dishes and send them to an executive chef, where it is either approved and sent to the customer, or is deemed unacceptable and sent back to the kitchen. The competition has run for the past 19 years. During the 9th annual Heaven's Kitchen competition, the Ruby team cooked a total of 136 dishes, of which 98 were sent back to the kitchen by the executive chef. In the same period, the competing Sapphire team cooked a total of 204 dishes and had 142 return. Construct a confidence interval to estimate the difference in the proportion of dishes sent back to the Ruby team and the proportion of dishes sent back to the Sapphire team.
