Suppose we create a box model for the outcome of a game of darts. The player has a 1/4 chance of throwing a dart in the inner ring, and a 3/4 chance of the dart landing in the outer ring. In our model, we have two unique tickets marked “inner” and “outer”. We put in 3 tickets marked “outer”. How many tickets do we put in that are marked “inner”? (Report a numerical value)

Suppose packages of margarine coming from an automated processor have weights that are normally distributed. For one day’s production, the weights are well approximated by a normal curve with mean 8.5 oz and a standard deviation of 0.5. Suppose two packages are selected at random from the day’s production. If the packages of margarine are labeled 8 oz, what is the probability that both of them weigh above the labeled amount? (Assume their weights are independent).   (Fill in the numerical value. Round your answer to two decimal places)
