4. A grocery store procures 4% of its eggs from Farm-H. Suppose 10% of the eggs that Farm-H supplies are rotten. And 5% of the eggs not obtained from Farm-H are rotten.

a) Draw the probability tree, and indicate the known probabilities in it.

b) What is the probability that a randomly selected egg is from Farm-H and rotten? Write the probability statement and show your steps in calculating the probability.

c) What is the probability that a randomly selected egg is rotten? Write the probability statement and show your steps in calculating the probability.

d) What is the probability that a randomly selected rotten egg is from Farm-H? Write the probability statement and show your steps in calculating the probability.

A certain grocery store in Tuscaloosa receives 20%, 40%, and 40% of its packaged salad from Suppliers A, B and C, respectively. It is known that excess moisture (which causes a slimy texture) occurs in 12% of packaged salad from Supplier A, in 8% of packaged salad from Supplier B, and in 10% of packaged salad from Supplier C. What is the probability of randomly selecting a salad that is both from Supplier C and has excess moisture? Find the...

Caviar is made from the eggs of sturgeon fish. There are several species of sturgeon. Some are endangered and cannot be harvested for making caviar. Shipments of caviar are DNA tested to make sure they do not contain an illegal species. However, under the de minimus principle of law (minimal violation) a small percentage of illegal species is disregarded. Suppose the percentage of illegal species allowed is 5%. In other words, in a barely allowable shipment, the probability that a...

1) Suppose that an egg production facility has a machine to transport eggs from underneath the hens to a central collection point. Occasionally, about 0.03 of the time, the transportation mechanism damages an egg, rendering that egg inedible. a random sample of 8 eggs is chosen. What are the probabilities associated with that sample? number of trials (n): 8 1 - p = Probability of "success" on any one trial (p): 0.03 E(x) = np = Var(x) = np (1-p)...

Suppose your top drawer contains 36 different colored socks: 12 are white, 10 are black, 6 are pink, and 8 are blue. All socks in the drawer are loose (not paired). In the morning, you randomly select two socks, one at a time. Use a probability tree to calculate the following probabilities, approximating your final result to 4 decimal places. Note: creat a probability tree and the computations necessary to determine the following probabilities. a) What is the probability that...
