Answer:

On average, the project takes 4 weeks to complete.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

25% probability that the activity takes 2 weeks.

50% probability that the activity takes 4 weeks.

25% probability that the activity takes 6 weeks.

How long does the project now take to complete (on average)

We multiply each duration by it's probability.

0.25*2 + 0.5*4 + 0.25*6 = 4

On average, the project takes 4 weeks to complete.

den301095 [7]

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 main branches of statistics. They are:

1. Descriptive Statistics

2. Inferential Statistics

Descriptive statistics describes the characteristics of observed subjects or items while Inferential statistics makes inferences, based on given or derived data.

Inferential Statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between the experimental group and control group is due to <u>manipulation or chance.</u>

<u />

The Experimental group is the group that an effect is tested on while the Control group is the group that is left untested or uninfluenced. Inferential statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between these 2 groups is due to

- manipulation or interference by any force (which may be the experimenter/researcher)

or

- probability which is chance.

One pump can empty a pool in 4 days, whereas a second pump can empty the pool in 10 days. How long will it take the two pumps, w
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

20/7 days (just less than 3 days)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that (1 job) = (rate)(time), so time = (1 job) / (rate).

Set up and solve the following equation:

  1 job

------------------------------- = time required for 2 pumps working together

1 job         1 job

---------- + -------------

4 days      10 days

This comes out to:

              1 job

------------------------------------------- = time required

10 job-days      4 job-days

------------------ + -----------------

   40 days           40 days

or:

    1 job

-------------------- = (40/14) days, or 20/7 days (just less than 3 days)

14 job·days

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

   40 days
