Wine quality and soil.The Journal of Wine Research(Vol.21, 2010) published a study of the effects of soil and climate on the quality of wine produced in Spain. The soil at two vineyards鈥 Llarga and Solar鈥攚as the focus of the analysis.Wine produced from grapes grown in each of the two vineyards

was evaluated for each of three different years (growing seasons) by a wine-tasting panel. Based on the taste tests, the panel (as a group) selected the wine with the highest quality.

a.How many different wines were evaluated by the panel, where one wine was produced for each vineyard/growing season combination?

b.If the wines were all of equal quality, what is the probability that the panel selected a Llarga wine as the wine with the highest quality?

c.If the wines were all of equal quality, what is the probability that the panel selected a wine produced in year 3 as the wine with the highest quality?

d.The panel consisted of four different wine tasters who performed the evaluations independently of each other. If the wines were all of equal quality, what is the probability that all four tasters selected a Llarga wine as the wine with the highest quality?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The panel evaluated the different wines in two vineyards is 6.
  2. The probability that the panel selected a Llarga wine as the wine with the highest quality is 0.5.
  3. The probability that the panel selected a wine produced in year 3 as the wine with the highest quality 0.3.
  4. The probability that all four tasters selected a Llarga wine as the wine with the highest quality 0.063.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

A study on the impact of soil and climate on the quality of wine produced in Spain was published in The Journal of Wine Research (Vol. 21, 2010).The investigation focused on the soil at two vineyards, Llarga and Solar.The wine produced from grapes grown in each of the two vineyardswas evaluated for each of three different years (growing seasons) by a wine-tasting panel. The panel (as a whole) decided on the wine with the highest quality based on the tasting tests.

02

The different wines were evaluated by the panel. 

For the result apply the formula of combination.=23=6

So, six distinct wines from two vineyards were assessed by the panel.

03

Possibility that a Llarga wine was chosen by the panel as the best wine

The probability the value of combination is 6 and there are 3 panels for Llarge wine then the probability is 36=0.5.

So, there is a 0.5 percent chance that the panel chose a Llarga wine as the best wine.

04

The probability that the panel selected a wine produced in year 3 as the wine with the highest quality.

The probability the value of combination is 6 in past three years and there are 2 combinationsthen the probability is 26=0.3.

Therefore, there is a 0.3 chance that the panel would choose a wine made in year 3 as the wine with the highest quality.

05

The probability that all four tasters selected a Llarga wine as the wine with the highest quality

The require formula is

P(four individual tasters)=P(Llarge wine)4=(0.5)4 =0.063

Hence, the likelihood that each of the four tasters picked a Llarga wine as the best wine is 0.063.

Randomization in a study of TV commercials. Gonzaga University professors conducted a study of more than 1,500 television commercials and published their results in the Journal of Sociology, Social Work, and Social Welfare (Vol. 2, 2008). Commercials from eight networks鈥擜BC, FAM, FOX, MTV, ESPN, CBS, CNN, and NBC鈥攚ere sampled for 8 days, with one network randomly selected each day. The table below shows the actual order determined by random draw:

ABC鈥擩uly 6 (Wed)

FAM鈥擩uly 7 (Thr)

FOX鈥擩uly 9 (Sat)

MTV鈥擩uly 10 (Sun)

ESPN鈥擩uly 11 (Mon)

CBS鈥擩uly 12 (Tue)

CNN鈥擩uly 16 (Sat)

NBC鈥擩uly 17 (Sun)

a. What is the probability that ESPN was selected on Monday, July 11?

b. Consider the four networks chosen for the weekends (Saturday and Sunday). How many ways could the researchers select four networks from the eight for the weekend analysis of commercials? (Assume that the assignment order for the four weekend days was immaterial to the analysis.)

c. Knowing that the networks were selected at random, what is the probability that ESPN was one of the four networks selected for the weekend analysis of commercials?

Advertising proposals. The manager of an advertising department has asked her creative team to propose six new ideas for an advertising campaign for a major client. She will choose three of the six proposals to present to the client. The proposals were named A, B, C, D, E, and F, respectively.

a. In how many ways can the manager select the three proposals? List the possibilities.

b. It is unlikely that the manager will randomly select three of the six proposals, but if she does, what is the probability that she will select proposals A, D, and E?

On-the-job arrogance and task performance. Human Performance (Vol. 23, 2010) published the results of a study that found that arrogant workers are more likely to have poor performance ratings. Suppose that 15% of all full-time workers exhibit arrogant behaviors on the job and that 10% of all full-time workers will receive a poor performance rating. Also, assume that 5% of all full-time workers exhibit arrogant behaviors and receive a poor performance rating. Let A be the event that a full-time worker exhibits arrogant behavior. Let B be the event that a full-time worker will receive a poor performance rating.

a. Are the events A and B mutually exclusive? Explain.

b. Find P(B/A).

c. Are the events A and B independent? Explain.

Firefighter glove sizing. Human Factors (December 2015) published a study on how well firefighter gloves fit. In a group of 586 firefighters who reported their glove size, the researchers determined whether the gloves fit well or poorly by gender. The data are summarized in the accompanying table. Consider the gender and glove fit status of a randomly selected firefighter.

a. List the sample points for this experiment.

b. Assign reasonable probabilities to these sample points.

c. Find the probability the firefighter is a female.

d. Find the probability the glove fits well.

e. Find the probability the firefighter is a female and has a well-fitting glove.

f. Find the probability the firefighter is a female or has a well-fitting glove.
