Suppose the next three random numbers were .11, .42 and .84. Use these values to simulate arrivals into the bakery and determine the average number of arrivals per 10-minute period based on these occurrences

The average number of arrivals per 10-minute period is:

A) 6.
B) 7.
C) 8.
D) 9.

A bakery is considering hiring another clerk to better serve customers. To help with this decision, records were kept to determine how many customers arrived in 10-minute intervals. Based on 100 10-minute intervals, the following probability distribution and random number assignments developed.

Number of Arrivals Probability Random numbers
6 .1 .01 - .10
7 .3 .11 - .40
8 .3 .41 - .70
9 .2 .71 - .90
10 .1 .91 - .00
