The first thing you need to do is set up the equation. from the question, you can set up this equation
1800 = 2x - 1500
from this, you need to subtract 1500 from both sides
then, you get:
3300 = 2x
to find x, divide both sides of the equation by two:
1800 = 2x - 1500

           2
from this, you get that x = 1650
ANSWER: x = 1650

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

0.055 = 5.5% probability that exactly 5 employees were over 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

The employees are removed from the sample without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

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)!}

In this question:

7 + 18 = 25 employees, which means that N = 25

7 over 50, which means that k = 7

10 dismissed, which means that n = 10

What is the probability that exactly 5 employees were over 50?

This is P(X = 5). So

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

P(X = 5) = h(5,25,10,7) = \frac{C_{7,5}*C_{18,5}}{C_{25,10}} = 0.055

0.055 = 5.5% probability that exactly 5 employees were over 50.
