A Washington-based nonprofit research group recently released a report indicating that 60% of government workers acknowledge wit

nessing violations of ethical standards, policies, or laws in the past year, 40% of which went unreported. An additional 10% of government workers acknowledged making false reports of violations of ethical standards, policies or laws when they did not actually occur. What is the probability a randomly selected government worker witnessed a violation of ethical standards, policies or laws in the past year but did not report it

Answer:

<em>The probability  that a randomly selected government worker witnessed a violation of ethical standards, policies or laws in the past year but did not report it is </em><em>0.3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The outcome of the Washington- based nonprofit research group are that -

  • P (60)  -60% of government workers acknowledge witnessing violations of ethical standards, policies, or laws in the past year;
  • P (40%) - of which went unreported.
  • P (10) - An additional 10% of government workers acknowledged making false reports of violations of ethical standards, policies or laws when they did not actually occur.

∴ P(60%) + P(10%) =  P(70) which is Probability of those that are involved in one form of violations or the other.

Therefore, P(100%) - P(70%) = 30%

P( Not committed and withnessed any violations of ethical standards, policie or law) = 30%/100%

<em>= 0.3</em>

Yuki888 [10]
M = 90 kg,
On Mars:  g = 3.71 m/s² 
Weight = m · g = 90 kg · 3.71 m/s² = 333.9 N
1 N = 0.2248 lbf
333.9 · 0.2248 = 75.06072 lbf ≈ 75 lbf

Please help. It’s a picture
Korolek [52]
$260

I don’t know what model/formula you are supposed to be using.

But what I did first was calculated what 30% of 2700$ is.
2700 x .3 = 810

So it depreciates $810 per year.

$810 x. 3 years = 2430

2700 - 2430 = 260

In three years, the laptop will be worth $260

Find the length of each segment. SEE EXAMPLES 1 AND 2
wlad13 [49]

The lengths of the line segments are summarized in the following list:

  1. DF = 3
  2. DE = 8 / 3
  3. FG = 3
  4. FH = 9 / 2
  5. GH = 3 / 2
  6. EH = - 11 / 6
<h3>How to calculate the length of a line segment based on point set on a number line</h3>

Herein we have a number line with five points whose locations are known.  The length of each line segment is equal to the arithmetical difference of the coordinates of the rightmost point and the leftmost point:

DF = - 1 - (- 4)

DF = 3

DE = (- 1 - 1 / 3) - (- 4)

DE = 3 - 1 / 3

DE = 8 / 3

FG = 2 - (- 1)

FG = 3

FH = (3 + 1 / 2) - (- 1)

FH = 4 + 1 / 2

FH = 9 / 2

GH = (3 + 1 / 2) - 2

GH = 1 + 1 / 2

GH = 3 / 2

EH = (3 + 1 / 2) + (- 1 - 1 / 3)

EH = - 2 + (1 / 2 - 1 / 3)

EH = - 2 + 1 / 6

EH = - 11 / 6

Alvin's age is two times Elga's age. The sum of their ages is 63. What is Elga's age?
lawyer [7]

Answer: Alvin = 42 yrs , Elga = 21 yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Elga's age be x , and Alvin's age be y ,since Alvin is two times Elga's age , then

Alvin's age = 2x , that is

y = 2x ............... equation 1

The sum of their ages is 63 implies

x + y = 63 .............. equation 2

Solving the resulting linear equations by substitution method.

Substitute equation 1 into equation 2 , we have

x + 2x = 63

3x = 63

x = 63/3

x = 21

Therefore : Elga is 21 years old , then Alvin will be 21 x 2, which will be 42

The scores on an achievement test are normaly distributed with mean µ = 100 and standard deviation σ = 100. What should the scor
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

the student should score atleast 229 to be among the top 10%.

Step-by-step explanation:

in terms of the normal distribution, and if the table that you're using calculates the area of the normal distribution from the mean to a point x, only then what we are actually finding the value 'x' at which the z-score is at 40% (the rest 50% is already skipped by the table)

P(0.4) = \dfrac{x - \mu}{\sigma}

after finding the the value at this z-score, we can find the value of x at which the score is in the top 10% range.

we can find the z-score either using a normal distribution table or calculator. (but be sure what area is it calculating)

looking at the table the closest value we can find is, 0.4015 at z = 1.29 ((it is above 40% because we want to be in the top 10% range)

P(0.4015) = \dfrac{x - 100}{100}

1.29 = \dfrac{x - 100}{100}

x = 1.29(100) + 100

x = 229

the student should score atleast 229 to be among the top 10%.
