baherus [9]

Answer:

There is a 25.52% probability of observating 4 our fewer succesful recommendations.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each recommendation, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it was a success, or it was a failure. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

p = 0.553, n = 10

If the claim is correct and the performance of recommendations is independent, what is the probability that you would have observed 4 or fewer successful:

This is

P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.553)^{0}.(0.447)^{10} = 0.0003

P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.553)^{1}.(0.447)^{9} = 0.0039

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.553)^{2}.(0.447)^{8} = 0.0219

P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.553)^{3}.(0.447)^{7} = 0.0724

P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.553)^{4}.(0.447)^{6} = 0.1567

P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.0003 + 0.0039 + 0.0219 + 0.0724 + 0.1567 = 0.2552

There is a 25.52% probability of observating 4 our fewer succesful recommendations.

There were 130 faculty at a conference. If there were 18 more women than men attending, how many of each gender attended the con
IgorC [24]

Answer:

the number of men be 56

And, the number of women be 74

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of each genders attended the conference is shown below;

Let us assume the number of men be x

And, the number of women be y

Now the equations would be

x + y = 130 .............. (1)

And,

y = 18 + x ................ (2)

Now put the y value in the equation 1

x + 18 + x = 130

2x = 130 - 18

2x = 112

x = 56

Now the y is

= 18 + 56

= 74

So, the number of men be 56

And, the number of women be 74
