Case 2. (Make necessary assumptions and solve the following questions. Show all your works: including all computational procedures and details.)
Sundance and his friend Butch are in the business of baking gourmet pizza. As soon as Sundance receives an order (either an Old West Pizza or a Sundance Kid Special Pizza) by phone, Sundance washes the bowl and mixes dough according to the customer's order. He then places the pizza dough onto a pan that holds one order of pizza. His friend Butch then sets the oven and places the pan in it. Pizza is baked in the oven and allowed to cool outside. Butch then wraps the pizza and collects payment from the customer. According to their observation, 10% of Sundance Kid Special Pizza produced are defective items and must be throw away (i.e., yield rate=100%-10%=90%; yield rate).
