Hey there,

To find percent of error you will start by subtracting 270 from 302

302 - 270 = 32

32 • 100 = 3200

3200 / 270 = 11.9

11.9 rounds to 12% so
about 12%

Hope I helped :)

dusya [7]

Considering a discrete distribution, it is found that the expected number of new employees to be hired by the​ airline is of 446.16.

<h3>What is the mean of a discrete distribution?</h3>

The expected value of a discrete distribution is given by the <u>sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability</u>.

In this problem, considering the situation described in the text, the distribution is given by:

  • P(X = 837) = 0.37.
  • P(X = 199) = 0.63.

Hence, the expected value is given by:

E(X) = 0.37(867) + 0.63(199) = 446.16.
