One afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Baxter and their 3 children were busy working outside in their garden. Mrs. Baxter was feeling hungry, so she went inside to the kitchen where there was a plate full of cookies. She ate 1/6 of the cookies and then went back to work. Mr. Baxter was feeling hungry, so he went inside and ate 1/5 of the remaining cookies and then went back to work. Next, Anna was feeling hungry, so she went inside and ate 1/4 of the cookies that were left on the plate and then went back to work. Then Tyler was feeling hungry, so he went inside, ate 1/3 of the cookies left on the plate and then went back to work. Finally, little Adam was feeling hungry, and he went inside and ate 1/2 of the remaining cookies, leaving 4 cookies on the plate.

In tossing one coin 10 times, what are your chances for tossing a head? a tail? 2. in tossing one coin 100 times, what are your chances for tossing a head? a tail? 3. in tossing one coin 200 times, what are your chances for tossing a head? a tail? deviation = ((absolute value of the difference between expected heads and observed heads) + (absolute value of the difference between expected tails and observed tails)) divided by total number of tosses. this value should always be positive. 4. what is the deviation for 10 tosses? 5. what is the deviation for the 100 tosses? 6. what is the deviation for 200 tosses? 7. how does increasing the total number of coin tosses from 10 to 100 affect the deviation? 8. how does increasing the total number of tosses from 100 to 200 affect the deviation? 9. what two important probability principles were established in this exercise? 10. the percent of occurrence is the obtained results divided by the total tosses and multiplied by 100%. toss the coins 100 times and record your results. calculate the percent occurrence for each combination. percent head-head occurrence: percent tail-tail occurrence: percent head-tail occurrence:

(co 3) the soup produced by a company has a salt level that is normally distributed with a mean of 5.4 grams and a standard deviation of 0.3 grams. the company takes readings of every 10th bar off the production line. the reading points are 5.8, 5.9, 4.9, 6.5, 5.0, 4.9, 6.2, 5.1, 5.7, 6.1. is the process in control or out of control and why? it is out of control as two of these data points are more than 2 standard deviations from the mean it is in control as the data points more than 2 standard deviations from the mean are far apart it is out of control as one of these data points is more than 3 standard deviations from the mean it is in control as the values jump above and below the mean
