Answer:

There is a 0.57% probability that a randomly selected nanny who was placed during the last year is a male nanny (a "mannie").

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

Desired outcomes:

The number of male nannies selected. 24 of the nannies placed were men. So the number of desired outcomes is 24.

Total outcomes:

The number of nannies selected. 4,176 nannies were placed in a job in a given year. So the number of total outcomes 4176.

Find the probability that a randomly selected nanny who was placed during the last year is a male nanny (a "mannie").

P = \frac{24}{4176} = 0.0057

There is a 0.57% probability that a randomly selected nanny who was placed during the last year is a male nanny (a "mannie").

Delvig [45]

Answer:

a) Sample A

b) Sample D

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample that will provide the most significance evidence for the claim is the one that has the bigger proportion of US citizens who can name the capital city of Canada.

The sample that has the bigger proportion is Sample A, with p=38/40=0.95.

The samples that have a proportion of 0.75 of less surely will give no evidence for the claim.

The sample D has a proportion of p=27/40=0.675, which is less than 0.75, so it doesn't provide evidence for the claim.

Sample C has a proportion of 0.775. Is very close to 0.75, but its value as evidence depends on the level of significance of the test.

If you would like to know how many hours will Lena need to work before she can afford to buy the computer, you can calculate this using the following steps:

$900 - $473 = $427
