poll of 400 college graduates. Among those​ polled, 78 % stayed at their first​ full-time job less than 2 years. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (d). a. Assuming that​ 50% is the true percentage of graduates who stay at their first job less than two​ years, find the mean and standard deviation of the numbers of such graduates in randomly selected groups of 400 graduates.

Answer:

Mean, μ = 200

Standard deviation, σ = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided:

a) true percentage of graduates who stay at their first job less than two​ years

p = 50% = 0.5

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

Number of graduates selected in a group, n = 400

Now,

The mean is calculated as:

Mean, μ = p × n

or

μ = 0.5 × 400 = 200

and,

standard deviation, σ = \sqrt{npq}

or

σ = \sqrt{400\times0.5\times0.5}

or

σ = √100

or

σ = 10

What formula to use <br> Answer
77julia77 [94]

Check the picture below.

now, since we know what "f" is, let us use the CNT triangle with the small COR one.


\bf \cfrac{36+f+30}{36}=\cfrac{48+32+g}{48}\implies \cfrac{36+24+30}{36}=\cfrac{48+32+g}{48} \\\\\\ \cfrac{90}{36}=\cfrac{80+g}{48}\implies \cfrac{5}{2}=\cfrac{80+g}{48}\implies 240=160+2g \\\\\\ 80=2g\implies \cfrac{80}{2}=g\implies 40=g
