Hello, the system finally provided the answer to this one, but was looking for some clarification on how to go about this problem. Thank you.
1. Grocery store A and grocery store B are located close to where you live. Store A does not
replace inventory until the next day. Store B replaces inventory in real time (i.e. as soon as
an item is purchased, it is restocked). Every day, both stores have the following chocolate
bars available for purchase; 50 Butterfingers, 65 Hershey Almond bars, 30 Nestle Crunch
bars, and 80 Luna bars.
(a) On any given day, if you purchase 6 chocolate bars from store A, what is the probability
that 3 are Luna bars, 2 are Nestle Crunch bars and 1 is a Hershey Almond bar?
(b) SAME question as (a) above, except this time you buy the chocolate bars from store B.
The Phony TV company makes two different types of television sets,
OLED and LED, which are assembled by two different assembly lines.
When Line One operates it assembles 30 units of the OLED model
and 50 units of the LED model per hour. Line Two assembles 40 units
of the OLED model and 40 units of the LED model per hour. Let x
be the number of hours that Line One operates and y the number of
hours Line Two operates. Phony needs to produce at least 3000 units
of the OLED model and 4000 units of the LED model to fill an order.
(a) Write down the inequalities that describe the assembly constraints.
(b) Graph the feasible region determined by these constraints.

She creates two groups of 25 students each and gives each group the same sight word flashcards. Group A is assigned to practice with the flashcards for 10 minutes every day for their first semester. Group B is not given this assignment. Each group is tasked with keeping a reading log during their second semester. At the end of 1st grade, Dr. Barton counts how many books each group has read. Group A read 68 books, and Group B read 92 books. The control group is: The independent variable is: The dependent variable is: This study shows that there is a positive correlation between 10 minutes of daily flashcard practice of sight words and the amount of books read.

- You have been tasked with examining the queueing system of a continuously operating ride at a theme park. However, there is not a position where you can fully see the entire queue. In particular, if there are 9 or fewer riders, you cannot determine the exact number of riders. You can always see the 10th rider in line (if there are 10 or more riders). Similarly, you cannot see if there are 31 or more riders in line. You can always see the 30th rider in line. You do know, however, that there can be at most 40 riders in line. The data below provides the fraction of time that you observed k = 10, 11, . . . , 30 for each individual k. These frequencies total .9 (90% of the time). You observed that .04 of a fraction of time (4%), there were 9 or fewer riders in line and that .06 of a fraction of time (6%), there were 31 or more riders in line. It is well known that riders arrive to the line at a rate of 30 per hour and the average ride time is 10 minutes.
