The company in has disciplined a worker who was suspected of pilfering tools and supplies from the plant.

The very next day, the production line broke down $9$ times. Management has confronted the union with

accusations of sabotage on the line, but the union president says it$$s just a coincidence that the production

line happened to break down so many times the day after the worker was disciplined. Using probabilities

appropriate to your discussion, comment on how much of a coincidence this high number of breakdowns

would appear to be$.$
