I need help with a word problem! There is two questions I'm sorry!:There are 20 applicants for two jobs: Computer programmer and
1 answer:
The number of applicants is 20.
a).The number of ways 20 applicants can be split into two jobs is a question of combination as arrangment is not a necessity in this problem.
b).The number of ways in which 20 applicant can be split into these two jobs categories can be determined as,
Thus, there will be 21 ways in which the jobs can be split into these two categories.

Using the normal approximation to the binomial, it is found that:
- The mean of X is of 52 samples.
- The standard deviation of X is of 4.2661 samples.
- 0.0017 = 0.17% probability that less than half without any traces of pesticide.
--------------------------------
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.
Can be approximated to a normal distribution, with mean given by:
And standard deviation of:
Normal probability distribution
Z-score formula is used, which, in a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
- Each z-score has an associated p-value, which measures the percentile of measure X.
--------------------------------
- 65% of samples had no pesticide, thus
- 80 samples, thus
The mean of X is of:
The standard deviation of X is of:
Using the approximation and continuity correction, the probability is , which is the p-value of Z when X = 39.5. Thus:
has a p-value of 0.0017, thus:
0.0017 = 0.17% probability that less than half without any traces of pesticide.
