Answer:

0.5433 is the probability that out of three executive job applicants, none lied on their application.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

We treat individuals lying on the resume as a success.

P(Individuals lie on resume) = 18.4% = 0.184

Then the number of job applicants follows a binomial distribution, where

P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}

where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.

Now, we are given n = 3

We have to evaluate:

P(None lied on resume)

P(x =0)\\\\= \binom{3}{0}(0.184)^0(1-0.184)^3\\\\= 0.5433

0.5433 is the probability that out of three executive job applicants, none lied on their application.

A father is 32 years older than his son. In four years,
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

  • father: 36
  • son: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the son's age now. Then s+32 is the father's age. In 4 years, we have ...

  5(s+4) = (s+32)+4

  5s +20 = s +36 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  4s = 16 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract s+20

  s = 4

The son is now 4 years old; the father, 36.

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

In 4 years, the ratio of ages is ...

  father : son = 5 : 1

The difference of their ages at that time is 5-1 = 4 "ratio units". Since the difference in ages is 32 years, each ratio unit must stand for 32/4 = 8 years. That is, the future age ratio is ...

  father : son = 40 : 8

So, now (4 years earlier), the ages must be ...

  father: 36; son: 4.
