Elena was taking inventory of 1-pound shrimp packages at the end of the day at a seafood market. She recorded the country of origin and whether the package contained shrimp that were farm-raised or wild-caught. • 27 packages of shrimp were farm-raised in Mexico. • 40 packages of shrimp were farm-raised in Honduras. 52 packages of shrimp were farm-raised in Ecuador. • 13 packages of shrimp were wild-caught in Mexico. • 6 packages of shrimp were wild-caught in Honduras. • 28 packages of shrimp were wild-caught in Ecuador. 1. Construct a two-way frequency table to summarize the data based on country of origin and whether the shrimp were wild-caught or farm-raised. 2. A package of shrimp is selected at random from those inventoried. Are the events "wild-caught" and "came from Honduras" independent?

- Fried PCs. A computer company recently experienced a disastrous fire that ruined some of its inventory. Unfortu-nately, during the panic of the fire, some of the damaged computers were sent to another warehouse, where theywere mixed with undamaged computers. The engineerresponsible for quality control would like to check outeach computer in order to decide whether it’s undamagedor damaged. Each computer undergoes a series of 100tests. The number of tests it fails will be used to makethe decision. If it fails more than a certain number, it willbe classified as damaged and then scrapped. From pasthistory, the distribution of the number of tests failed isknown for both undamaged and damaged computers.The relative frequencies of each outcome are listed in thetable below:The table indicates, for example, that 80% of theundamaged computers have no failures, while 70% ofthe damaged computers have 2 failures.a) To the engineers, this is a hypothesis-testing situation.State the null and…arrow_forwardA deli offers 6 different toppings.
