Eight percent of all college graduates hired by companies stay with the same company for more than five years. The probability,

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

0.1662 = 16.62% probability that exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years

Step-by-step explanation:

For each graduate, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they stay for the same company for more than five years, or they do not. Graduates are independent. 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.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Eight percent of all college graduates hired by companies stay with the same company for more than five years.

This means that $p = 0.08$

Sample of 11 college graduates:

This means that $n = 11$

The probability, rounded to four decimal places, that in a random sample of 11 such college graduates hired recently by companies, exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years is: the absolute tolerance is +-0.0001

The tolerance means that the answer is rounded to four decimal places.

The probability is P(X = 2). So

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{11,2}.(0.08)^{2}.(0.92)^{11} = 0.1662$

0.1662 = 16.62% probability that exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years

The sides of a right triangle have a relationship as depicted below, where x is the length of the longer leg in inches.

Ratling [72]

The equation to represent the area of the triangle would be:
y = 1/2(x²) - (7/2)x

The equation to represent the perimeter of the triangle would be:
y = 3x - 6

The solutions to the system would be (12, 30) or (1, -3). The only viable solution is (12, 30).

Explanation
The area of a triangle is found using the formula
A = 1/2bh

For our triangle, b = x and h = x-7, so we have:
A = 1/2(x)(x-7)
A = 1/2(x²-7x)
A = 1/2(x²) - (7/2)x

We will replace A with y, so we have:
y = 1/2(x²) - (7/2)x

The perimeter of a triangle is found by adding together all sides, so we have:
P = (x-7) + x + (x+1)

Combining like terms we get:
P = 3x - 6

We will replace P with y, so we have:
y = 3x - 6

Since both equations have y isolated on one side, it will be easy to use substitution to solve the system:

3x - 6 = 1/2(x²) - (7/2)x

It's easier to work with whole numbers, so we will multiply everything by 2:
6x - 12 = x² - 7x

We want all of the variables on one side, so we will subtract 6x:
6x - 12 - 6x = x² - 7x - 6x
-12 = x² - 13x

When solving quadratics, we want the equation equal to 0, so we will add 12:
-12+12 = x² - 13x + 12
0 = x² - 13x + 12

This is easy to factor, as there are factors of 12 that sum to -13; -12(-1) = 12 and -12+-1 = -13:
0 = (x-12)(x-1)

Using the zero product property, we know that either x-12=0 or x-1=0; therefore x=12 or x=1.

Putting these back into our equation for perimeter (the simplest one) we have:
y = 3(12)-6 = 36-6 = 30; (12, 30);
y = 3(1) - 6 = 3 - 6 = -3; (1, -3)

We cannot have a negative perimeter, so the only viable solution is (12, 30).
