Question
- A study was conducted on three types of home siding and the type of damage done to the siding by woodpeckers. Each hole made by a woodpecker was classified as either drumming (territorial signaling), foresting (looking for food), or nesting. The following bar chart shows the relative frequency of the holes for each type of siding.
Which of the following statements is supported by the bar chart?
- The proportion of holes created for drumming is the same for all three siding types.
- The proportion of holes created for drumming is greatest for grooved plywood.
- The proportion of holes created for drumming is least for grooved plywood.
- The number of holes created for drumming is least for grooved plywood.
- The number of holes created for drumming is greatest for nonwood.

Over the last five years, sales of the company's flagship product - the Wizer Anonymizer (the WA) - have been 45000, 45500, 44500, 46000 and 44000 units. This rate of sales is considered average for the product over the last twenty years or so. Ms. Jacobsen believes that the distribution of the WA's sales is normal with a standard deviation of 1500 units. If she were asked to make a forecast of next year's sales to upper management, what is the likelihood that she would be correct if she predicts sales between 43000 and 46000?arrow_forward
