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:
Hence, the expected value is given by:
E(X) = 0.37(867) + 0.63(199) = 446.16.

<u>Answer:
</u>
The population of a city has decreased by 38% since it was last measured. If the current population is 27,900 .Previous population of city was 45000.
<u>
Solution:
</u>
Given that current population of city is 27900.
Also, population of a city has decreased by 38% since it was last measured.
Let assume that population of city when it was last measured = x
Decreased of 38% means x-38% of x . we can write this as,



So current population is 
Equating above expression to the given value of current population, we get


x=45000
Hence previous population of city was 45000.
