Answer: 288ways

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5men and 5women to be arranged, since the men must seat together, they will be arranged in 5! ways. For the women, since they must also seat together but with siamese twins between them, they can be arranged in 4! ways instead of 5! ways and this is due to presence of the twins among them.

Note that Siamese twins cannot be separated as such both are taken as one making it 4!.

Since the women and men are always sitting together, they can be arranged in 2! ways i.e 2 sexes

The final seating arrangement can be done in 2!×(5!+4!) ways

= 2× (120+24)

= 2×144

= 288ways.

Note that the arrangement of the men and women are added because they can only be arranged differently to ensure different sex are not sitting together.

The mean work week for engineers in start-up companies is claimed to be about 63 hours with a standard deviation of 5 hours. Kar
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

a. Mean

b. μ = μ₀

c. 11.5%

d. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mean work week for engineers, μ₀ = 63 hours

The standard deviation, σ = 5 hours

The number of engineers in Kara's sample, n = 10 engineers

The responses given by the 10 engineers are;

70; 45; 55; 60; 65; 55; 55; 60; 50; 55

a. The given information which the newly hired is hoping to find out that it is not is the <em>mean</em>

<em />

b. The null hypothesis which is that the company claim is correct, is therefore;

Null hypothesis, H₀; μ = μ₀ = 63 hours

c. Kara's mean, \overline x is found as follows;

\overline x = (70 + 45 + 55 + 60 + 65 + 55 + 55 + 60 + 50 + 55)/10 = 57

\overline x = 57 hours

The Z-score is therefore;

Z=\dfrac{\overline x-\mu }{\sigma }

Z = (57 - 63)/5 = -1.2

From the Z-table, we have;

The p-value for P(\overline x ≤ 57) =  P(Z ≤ -1.2) = 0.11507

The probability as a percentage given to one decimal place, that the mean would be as low as Kara's mean, P(\overline x ≤ 57) = 11.5%

d. Given that the percent percentage chance (11.5%) that the mean could be as low as hers (\overline x = 57 hours) is higher than 10%, she should accept the claim.
