c. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : X = No. of hours worked
No. of people work for the manager = 50
X = 3, 4 , 5 , 6 , 7, 8
P(X) = 0.1 , ? , 0.14 , 0.3 , 0.36 , 0.06
To Find : No. of people work for four hours
Solution : First understand the fact that sum of all probabilities is equal to 1
So, sum of all values of P(X) = 1
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
So, the probability of no. of people worked for 4 hours is 0.04.
⇒P(4)=0.04
Thus , To calculate no. of people work for four hours :
⇒ 2 no. of people work for four hours per shift .
Consider such events:
A - slip with number 3 is chosen;
B - the sum of numbers is 4.
You have to count
Use formula for conditional probability:
1. The event consists in selecting two slips, first is 3 and second should be 1, because the sum is 4. The number of favorable outcomes is exactly 1 and the number of all possible outcomes is 5·4=20 (you have 5 ways to select 1st slip and 4 ways to select 2nd slip). Then the probability of event
is
2. The event consists in selecting two slips with the sum 4. The number of favorable outcomes is exactly 2 (1st slip 3 and 2nd slip 1 or 1st slip 1 and 2nd slip 3) and the number of all possible outcomes is 5·4=20 (you have 5 ways to select 1st slip and 4 ways to select 2nd slip). Then the probability of event
is
3. Then
