The point estimate or p hat is a single value that shows the best estimation of a certain parameter among a population.

To calculate point estimate, we divide the parameter by the whole population.

In case of this problem:
p hat = 51/84 = 0.607

To get the percent, we multiply the output by 100:
% of point estimate = 0.607 x 100 = 60.7%

Why delegate authority and not responsibility​
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Authorities can be assigned, but never delegated obligations. Subordinates are responsible for "results" and managers are responsible for their subordinates ' actions. You can't be held responsible for a mission if you have little competence.

Explanation:

The delegation lets you pass the power to professional team members to work on more urgent matters. But you are still responsible for doing these in the right way. It is therefore necessary to periodically track the status or interact with the team member

Let us recognize some of the fundamental principles to be observed in delegating: 1. The delegated authority to subordinates should be adequate to achieve the desired performance.

2. The power may be delegated but never assigned responsibility. Subordinate accountability is "efficiency" and managers are "responsible for their subordinates ' activities."

3. A duty can not be held accountable if it only has limited authority. A balance between authority and responsibility must be created.

4. A single superior's presence brings to mind the subordinate more personally responsible.
