Question

A baker produces 500 loaves a day. On Monday, 50 loaves didn't meet quality standards. The baker generates a random sample to simulate 10 loaves to inspect on Tuesday. The integers 1 to 50 represent sub-standard loaves.

351, 207, 148, 428, 272,
121, 47, 205, 56, 4

1. Based on this sample, how many loaves will not meet quality standards on Tuseday?

A - 2
B - 20
C - 100
D - 150

2. What is the difference between the number of sub-standard loaves produced on Monday and the number predicted to be sub-standard on Tuesday?

A - 10
B - 50
C - 100
D - 200

(Answer with how to do the problems, please.)

Answer 1

1.) Number of loaves that will not meet the standard on Monday = 2/10 x 500 = 100 loaves.

2.) Difference between the number of sub-standard loaves produced on Monday and the number predicted to be sub-standard on Tuesday = 100 - 50 = 50 loaves
