Considering a discrete distribution, it is found that the expected number of new employees to be hired by the​ airline is of 446.16.

<h3>What is the mean of a discrete distribution?</h3>

The expected value of a discrete distribution is given by the <u>sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability</u>.

In this problem, considering the situation described in the text, the distribution is given by:

  • P(X = 837) = 0.37.
  • P(X = 199) = 0.63.

Hence, the expected value is given by:

E(X) = 0.37(867) + 0.63(199) = 446.16.

A large university accepts ​60% of the students who apply. Of the students the university​ accepts, 50​% actually enroll. If 10,
prisoha [69]

we need to find 1% of 10000 first

so we divide 10000:100= 100 (that's 1%)

to find the 60% which will be accepted we multiply 100 × 60 = 6000 students accepted

of those 6000 we need to find 50% which is ½ so we basically just divide by 2, aka 6000 : 2 = 3000 people which will be enrolled

in a box full of oranges, apples, and pears in a ratio 2:5:6. What is the total weight of the fruits in the box if it was known
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

31.2 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2x = weight of oranges

5x = weight of apples

6x = weight of pears

2x + 5x + 6x = total weight

2x = 4.8

x = 2.4

4.8 + 5(2.4) + 6(2.4) = 4.8 + 12 + 14.4

= 31.2 lbs

(Quick please ) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Help me!!!!! find the surface area of the rectangular prism!!!!!! thank you
Aleks [24]
You can do this !

The rectangular prism has

                   -- length = 10 cm
                   -- width  =  7 cm
                   -- height =  3 cm.

-- The area of the top and bottom is  (length x width)  each.

-- The area of the left and right sides is  (length x height)  each.

-- The area of the front and back is  (width x height)  each.

There.  I just laid out all the schmartz you need to answer this question.
The rest is all simple arithmetic, and you're perfectly capable of turning
the crank and getting the answer.  You don't need anybody else to do
that part for you.

Don't forget your units.  The area of each flat face is (cm) times (cm),
and that product will be some cm² , for area.
