[Solution] The Wonderful Chocolate Chip Cookie Company promises at least three chocolate chips in each cookie. They promise a double your money hack guarantee


Question: The Wonderful Chocolate Chip Cookie Company promises at least three chocolate chips in each cookie. They promise a double your money hack guarantee if a cookie doesn't have at least three chips. We want to simulate the number of chips that must be added to the dough for a batch of six cookies to make sure that each cookie has at least three chips.

  1. Draw six small circles to represent six cookies. Number them 1-6. Use the following random number table to simulate the adding of chocolate chips to the batch. If the random number is 1, then cookie #1 gets a chip, etc. Continue adding chips until each cookie has at least three chips in it. Tally the number of chips that were added to the batch. Clearly indicate which numbers you are using.
  2. Suppose that the simulation was performed thirty times. The mean number of chips added until each cookie had at least three chips was 30.3 with a standard deviation of 4.8 chips. The distribution was approximately normal with no outliers.
    Construct a 95% confidence interval for the number of chips necessary to add to a batch of dough to get three chips per cookie.
  3. Is it possible to guarantee that every cookie will have at least three chocolate chips? Why?

(D) Suppose the company decides it only wants to pay off on the money back guarantee 5% of the time_ What is the least number of chips that should he added to the a batch of dough for six cookies to accomplish this?
