Mathematics

1 answer:

Iteru [2.4K]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

You add them together and divide it by how many number there are.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example lets say we need to find the average of 12, 15, 18, and 24.

You would do 12+15+18+24

You will get a sum of 69

Then since there are 4 numbers you do 69 divided by 4 and get a quotients of 17.25.

Therefore 17.25 is the average of all four numbers.

The proportion of junior executives leaving large manufacturing companies within three years is to be estimated within 3 percent

Leona [35]

Answer: 709

Step-by-step explanation:

The formulas we use to find the required sample size :-

1. $n=(\dfrac{z^*\cdot \sigma}{E})^2$

, where $\sigma$ = population standard deviation,

E = Margin of error .

z* = Critical value

2. $n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2$ , where p= prior estimate of population proportion.

3. If prior estimate of population proportion is unavailable , then we take p= 0.5 and the formula becomes

$n=0.25(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2$

Given : Margin of error : E= 3% =0.03

Critical value for 95% confidence interval = z*= 1.96

A study conducted several years ago revealed that the percent of junior executives leaving within three years was 21%.

i.e. p=0.21

Then by formula 2., the required sample size will be :

$n=0.21(1-0.21)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.03})^2$

$n=0.21(0.79)(65.3333)^2$

$n=(0.1659)(4268.44008889)\\\\ n=708.134933333\approx709$ [Round to the next integer.]

Hence, the required sample size of junior executives should be studied = 709

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

n = 17

P = 1/4

Using binomial
