6. A retail bakery makes cherry muffins where, due to the production process, \(15 \%\) of muffins contain a lower than expected quantity of cherries. The bakery sells these muffins in boxes of 20.
- State a suitable distribution to model the number of muffins with a lower than expected quantity of cherries in a box, giving the value(s) of any parameter(s). State any assumptions needed for your model to be valid.
- Using your model from part (a), find the probability that a randomly selected box contains:
- exactly 3 muffins with a lower than expected quantity of cherries,
- at least 5 muffins with a lower than expected quantity of cherries.
- The bakery sells 25 boxes of muffins in one day. Find the probability that fewer than 4 of these boxes contain exactly 3 muffins with a lower than expected quantity of cherries.
