Answer:
0.00071 = 0.71% probability of getting three or fewer women when 21 people are hired. This probability, which is very small, supports the charge of gender discrimination.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each employee hired, the are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a man, or it is a woman. The probability of a person hired being a man or a woman is independent of any other person. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
21 new employees.
This means that [tex]n = 21[/tex]
She also learns that the pool of applicants is very large, with an approximately equal number of qualified men as qualified women.
This means that [tex]p = 0.5[/tex]
Help her address the charge of gender discrimination by finding the probability of getting three or fewer women when 21 people are hired.
This is
[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{21,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{21} \approx 0[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{21,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{20} = 0.00001[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{21,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{19} = 0.0001[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{21,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{18} = 0.0006[/tex]
[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0 + 0.00001 + 0.0001 + 0.0006 = 0.00071[/tex]
0.00071 = 0.71% probability of getting three or fewer women when 21 people are hired. This probability, which is very small, supports the charge of gender discrimination.

Tara and Mallory are practicing their passing at a volleyball practice. Tara bumps the ball from a height of 3 feet above the ground with an initial upward velocity of 12 feet/second. at the same time, mallory serves the ball from a height of 3.25 feet above the ground with an initial upward velocity of 9 feet/second.
if x represents the number of seconds since each ball is passed and y represents the height of the ball, which system of equations models the projectile motion of the two balls? recall that the acceleration due to gravity is -32 feet/second
Answer:
The system of equation that models the projectile of the two balls is option;
C. y = -16·x² + 12·x + 3
y = -16·x² + 9·x + 3.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation for vertical (upward) motion under gravity is presented as follows;
h - h₀ = u·t + 1/2·g·t²
Where;
h = The final height reached
h₀ = The initial height
u = The initial velocity
g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ -32 feet/second
t = The time taken
We can rewrite the above equation with different letters for the variables as follows;
h = y,
h₀ = y₀, and
t = x
Therefore, we have;
y - y₀ = u·x - 1/2 × 32 × x²
y = u·x - 1/2 × 32 × x² + y₀ = u·x - 16· x² + y₀
y = u·x - 16· x² + y₀ = -16·x² + u·x + y₀
y = -16·x² + u·x + y₀
For Tara, we have;
u = 12 feet/second
y₀ = 3 feet
Therefore, we get;
y = -16·x² + 12·x + 3
For Mallory, we have;
u = 9 feet/second
y₀ = 3.25 feet
Therefore, we get;
y = -16·x² + 9·x + 3.25
The correct option is therefore;
y = -16·x² + 12·x + 3
y = -16·x² + 9·x + 3.25

The mean monthly water bill for 44 residents of the local apartment complex is $104. What is the best point estimate for the mean monthly water bill for all residents of the local apartment complex?
Answer:
$104
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the best point estimate for the mean monthly water bill is shown below:
Given that
The mean monthly water bill is $104
and, the number of residents is 44
based on the above information
The best point estimate would be equivalent to the mean monthly water bill i.e. $104
hence, the same would be considered
A farmer knows that a grocery store will reject a shipment of his vegetables if more than 4% of the vegetables contain blemishes. He inspects a large truckload of tomatoes to determine if the proportion with blemishes (p) exceeds 0.04. He selects an SRS of 150 tomatoes from the more than 2,000 tomatoes in the truck. Suppose that 8 tomatoes sampled are found to have blemishes. Which of the assumptions for inference about a proportion is violated, if any?
a. Large Counts: np > 10
b. Large Counts: n(1 – p) > 10
c. The sample is a random sample of the entire population.
d. 10% condition: the sample size is less than 10% of the population.
e. There do not appear to be any violations.
Answer:
Assumption A is violated
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of blemishes = 8
n = sample size = 150
proportion = x/n = 8/150 = 0.0533
1. large counts: np> 10
= 150 * 0.0533 >10
= 7.995 > 10
this assumpton is obviously violated. 7.995 is not greater than 10
2. Large Counts: n(1 - p) > 10
150(1-0.0533)>10
150-7.995 > 10
142.005> 10
there is no violation. The assumption is satisfied
3. This assumption is satisfied. this is because the tomatoes were selected using simple random sampling.
4. 10% of the population = 0.1 * 2000 = 200
the sample size = 150
150 < 200
this assumption is satisfied
Noah has $5.
1.
a.
Elena has 40% as much as Noah. How much does Elena have?
b.
Compare Elena's and Noah's money using fractions. Draw a diagram to
illustrate.
Answer:
a. $4
b. Noah has 5/5. Elena has 4/5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Noah has $5.
a.
Elena has 80% of Noah's money.
80% of $5 = 0.80 * $5 = $4
b.
Noah has $5. We can consider $5 to be the full amount.
A full amount is 100% or 1 or 5/5.
Elena has 80% of Noah's money, so she has 80/100 of Noah's money.
80/100 reduces to 4/5.
Noah has 5/5, and Elena has 4/5.
The money that Elena has is $2.
What is percentage?A percentage is a value that indicates 100th part of any quantity.
A percentage can be converted into a fraction or a decimal by dividing it by 100.
The given problem can be solved as follows,
(a) The amount of money Elena has is 40% of that of Noah.
It can be written as follows,
40% × 5
= 40/100 × 5
= 2
(b) Since the Elena has 40% of the Noah's money,
In the form of fraction it can be written as follows,
40% = 40/100
= 2/5
This can be represented in a diagram as follows,
In the diagram shown the circle has in total 5 sectors of which 2 yellow sectors represent Elena's money.
Hence, the amount of money Elena has is $2 which is shown in the diagram.

What decimal is equivalent to 8/40?
Answer:
0.20
Step-by-step explanation:
8 divided by 40 equals 0.2
0.20 is the decimal is equivalent to 8/40.
What is decimal?A group of numbers between integers on a number line are known as decimals. They are merely an additional mathematical representation of fractions. Decimals allow us to express measurable quantities like length, weight, distance, money, etc. with greater accuracy. Integers, also known as whole numbers, are represented to the left of the decimal point, while decimal fractions are represented to the right of the decimal point. The next place, which is (1/10)th or tenth place value, is (1/10) times smaller if we move immediately from the first place.
Given:
Fraction = 8/40
Now, simplifying the given fraction
8/40
= 8/( 8x 5)
= 1/5
=0.20
Hence, 0.20 is the decimal is equivalent to 8/40.

Step-by-step explanation:
Hello There!
∠BAC ≅ ∠CDB because in a parallelogram opposite angles are congruent
So all we have to do is solver for ∠BAC
Remember the sum of the triangles angles is 180 so to find ∠BAC
we subtract the given angles (83 and 31) from 180
180-83-31=66
so ∠BAC = 66
like stated before
∠BAC≅∠BDC so if ∠BAC = 66 then x also equals 66
Answer:
x = 66
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 66 degree
Suppose that a committee is studying whether there is waste of time in our judicial system. It is interested in the mean amount of time individuals waste at the courthouse waiting to be called for jury duty. The committee randomly surveyed 81 people who recently served as jurors. The sample mean wait time was eight hours with a sample standard deviation of four hours. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean time wasted. Which distribution should you use for this problem
Answer:
The t-distribution is used, as we have the standard deviation of the sample.
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean time wasted is between 7.12 hours and 8.88 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which meas that the t-distribution should be used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 81 - 1 = 80
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 80 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 1.99
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.99\frac{4}{\sqrt{81}} = 0.88[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 8 - 0.88 = 7.12 hours.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 8 + 0.88 = 8.88 hours.
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean time wasted is between 7.12 hours and 8.88 hours.
Pineapple Corporation (PC) maintains that their cans have always contained an average of 12 ounces of fruit. The production group believes that the mean weight has changed. They take a sample of 15 cans and find a sample mean of 12.05 ounces and a sample standard deviation of .08 ounces. What conclusion can we make from the appropriate hypothesis test at the .01 level of significance
Answer:
We accept the null hypothesis, that is, that the mean weight of the cans is still of 12 ounces of fruit.
Step-by-step explanation:
Pineapple Corporation (PC) maintains that their cans have always contained an average of 12 ounces of fruit.
This means that the null hypothesis is: [tex]H_0: \mu = 12[/tex]
The production group believes that the mean weight has changed.
This means that the alternate hypothesis is:
[tex]H_a: \mu \neq 12[/tex]
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
12 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 12[/tex]
They take a sample of 15 cans and find a sample mean of 12.05 ounces and a sample standard deviation of .08 ounces.
This means, respectibely, that [tex]n = 15, X = 12.05, \sigma = 0.08[/tex]
Value of the test statistic:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{12.05 - 12}{\frac{0.08}{\sqrt{15}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = 2.42[/tex]
Pvalue of the test:
We are testing if the mean is different from a value, which means that the pvalue is 2 multiplied by 1 subtracted by the pvalue of z = 2.42.
Looking at the z-table, z = 2.42 has a pvalue of 0.9922
1 - 0.9922 = 0.0078
2*0.0078 = 0.0156
What conclusion can we make from the appropriate hypothesis test at the .01 level of significance?
0.0156 > 0.01. This means that at the 0.01 level, we accept the null hypothesis, that is, that the mean weight of the cans is still of 12 ounces of fruit.
