A = event that a male highschool player plays on a college team
B = event that a female highschool player plays on a college team
C = event that a male college player is drafted by the pro leagues
D = event that a female college player is drafted by the pro leagues

--------------------------------------------

Going from high school to college:
P(A) = 4500/549500
P(A) = 0.0082 <<-- value is approximate
P(B) = 4100/456900
P(B) = 0.0090 <<-- value is approximate
Females have a better chance of playing on college teams (since 0.0090 is larger than 0.0082)

--------------------------------------------

Going from college to the pro leagues:
P(C) = 44/4500
P(C) = 0.0098 <<-- value is approximate
P(D) = 32/4100
P(D) = 0.0078 <<-- value is approximate
Males have a better chance of getting drafted by the pro leagues (since 0.0098 is larger than 0.0078)

dezoksy [38]
Given: Security Service Company:
1.4 1.8 1.6 1.7 1.5 1.5 1.7 1.6 1.5 1.6
Mean: 1.59
Standard Deviation: 0.014333

Other companies: 1.8 1.9 1.6 1.7 1.6 1.8 1.7 1.5 1.8 1.7
Mean: 1.71
Standard deviation: 0.014333

The coefficient of variation for security Service Company:

CV = (Standard Deviation/Mean) * 100.

= (0.14333/1.59) * 100

= 9.01%

The coefficient of variation for other companies:

CV = (Standard Deviation/Mean) * 100.

= (0.014333 / 1.71) * 100

= 8.38%

the limited data listed here show evidence of stealing by the security service company's employees because there is a significant difference in the variation.
