Using proportions, it is found that it took 15 days for the students to finish the project.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.
In this problem, we have that:
- 100% of the project is done by 5 students in 15 days.
- After the 3 students left, 2 students will have a time of x days to do 100 - (9/15) = 40% of the project.
The compound <em>rule of three</em> is given as follows:
1 project - 5 students - 15 days
0.4 project - 2 students - x days
Increasing the number of students, the number of days is reduced, hence the measures are inverse proportional and the <em>rule of three</em> is given by:
15/x = 1
x = 15 days.
It took 15 days for the students to finish the project.

Answer:
a) h(x; 7, 5, 12) = (⁵Cₓ)( ⁷C₇₋ₓ) / (¹²C₇)
b) 2.92
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Here
Number of interviewees = N = 12
Number of job openings = M = 5
Interviews schedules for the first day = n = 7
N − M = 12 - 5 = 7
Using hypergeometric distribution:
Let X be the no. top four candidates interviewed on first day.
The probability mass function of X:
P(X = x) = /
It can be written as:
h(x; n, M, N) = /
= (5Cx) (7C7-x) / (12C7)
= (⁵Cₓ)( ⁷C₇₋ₓ) / (¹²C₇)
h(x; 7, 5, 12) = (⁵Cₓ)( ⁷C₇₋ₓ) / (¹²C₇)
b)
The expectation is: E(X) = np
E(X) = n * M/N
= 7 * 5/12
= 7 * 0.41667
= 2.9167
9*2=18
36-18=18
