3. Each week a garment factory makes one production run of their popular tie-dyed cheesecloth under-shirts. The size of the run is either 5,000, 6,000, 8,000 or 10,000 undershirts, based on field sale reports of projected demand. Although demand fluctuates considerably, the long-term market for the undershirts has held up well for many months. The probability distribution based on the factory experience is: X 5,000 P(X) 0.3 0.4 a) If the profit on each undershirt is $2.75, What is the expected weekly profit? 5,000.0.3+ 6,000.0.4+ 10,000.0.1 +8,000 -1.5 (341fe 6,000 V1200 = 3 8,000 10,000 2 = 4,900 1200 -3 b) What is standard deviation of the number of undershirts weekly? 0.1
