Old Joe the Retired Statistician watches from the shore every day. After 28 days, the red flag was raised on 16 of those days. Could Joe conclude that the oil-rig is operating at a non-ideal condition most of the time

Answer:

Mexican Gulf Output of a Oil-Rig

Based on 57% red flag days, Joe, the retired statistician, who watches from the shore for the red flag every day, cannot conclude that the oil-rig is operating at a non-ideal condition most of the time, but more of the time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ideal output of a particular oil-rig, at least = 2,000 barrels per day

When output is lesser than 2,000, a red flag is raised by the foreman

Number of days counted = 28

Number of days when red flag was raised = 16

Proportion of days when the red flag was raised = 16/28

= 0.57

or 57%
