Answer

Final Answer: The probability of selling 15 mini cookies in a given day is 0.19.

Steps

Step 1 :Given the probabilities of selling 0, 5, 10, and 20 mini cookies in a day are 0.22, 0.38, 0.14, and 0.07 respectively.

Step 2 :We know that the total probability should be 1. So we can calculate the missing probability by subtracting the sum of the given probabilities from 1.

Step 3 :Let's denote the probability of selling 15 mini cookies in a day as P15.

Step 4 :So, P15=1(0.22+0.38+0.14+0.07).

Step 5 :Calculate the value of P15.

Step 6 :P15=0.19.

Step 7 :Final Answer: The probability of selling 15 mini cookies in a given day is 0.19.
