A headline in a certain newspaper states that​ "most stay at first job less than 2​ years." That headline is based on an online

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

Answer:

  64.6

Step-by-step explanation:

One standard deviation is 4.3. Then +2 standard deviations is ...

  (+2)(4.3) = +8.6

This amount added to the mean gives ...

  56 +8.6 = 64.6 . . . . +2σ from the mean

Answer:  (-\infty, -4]

Curved parenthesis at negative infinity

Square bracket at -4

====================================================

Work Shown:

5(x+4) \le 0 \\\\x+4 \le \frac{0}{5} \\\\x+4 \le 0 \\\\x \le 0-4 \\\\x \le -4 \\\\

The last inequality shown above is the same as saying -\infty < x \le -4

Converting this to interval notation leads to the final answer of (-\infty , -4]

Note the use of a square bracket at -4 to include this endpoint. We can never include either infinity, so we always use a parenthesis for either infinity.
