A recent article in the paper claims that business ethics are at an​ all-time low. Reporting on a recent​ sample, the paper clai

ms that 41​% of all employees believe their company president possesses low ethical standards. Suppose 20 of a​ company's employees are randomly and independently sampled. Assuming the​ paper's claim is​ correct, find the probability that more than eight but fewer than 12 of the 20 sampled believe the​ company's president possesses low ethical standards.

Answer:

P=0.3726 or 37.26%

Step-by-step explanation:

The success, with 41% of probability of occurring, is that the employee believes the ​ company's president possesses low ethical standards. For more than 8 and less than 12 successes, it means the probability of having  9, 10 or  11 successes (all these summed).

The formula is:

b(x;n,p)= \ _nC_x*p^x*(1-p)^{n-x}

Where x is the number of successes,n the number of trials, p the probability of success,_nC_x refers to the combinations that can occur,  and it's formula is:

_nC_x=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

Calculating each case:

b(9,20,0.41)=\frac{20!}{9!(20-9)!}*0.41^9*(1-0.41)^{20-9}=0.1658

b(10,20,0.41)=\frac{20!}{10!(20-10)!}*0.41^{10}*(1-0.41)^{20-10}=0.1267

b(11,20,0.41)=\frac{20!}{11!(20-11)!}*0.41^{11}*(1-0.41)^{20-11}=0.0801

Adding each case:

P=0.1658+0.1267+0.0801= 0.3726

X + 4 is prime x2 – 9 can be factored using the formula.
Anna71 [15]

We are given two binomials: x+4 , x^2-9.

x+4 can't be factored. Therefore,  it is a prime.

Let us work on x^2-9.

9 could be written as 3^2.

Therefore, x^2-9 = x^2 - 3^2.

Now, we can apply difference of the squares formula to factor it.

We know a^2 -b^2 = (a-b) (a+b).

Therefore,  x^2 - 3^2 can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).

So, x^2-9 is not a prime binomial because it can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).

A cruise ship is traveling south going approximately 22 mph when it hits the Gulf Stream flowing east at 4 mph. Which expression
alexira [117]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The correct option is

a) Resultant=\sqrt{22^{2} +4^{2} }

<h2>Why?</h2>

Since a right triangle is formed, we can calculate the resultant force using the Pythagorean Theorem which states that:

c=\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}}

Where,

c, is the hypothenuse.

a, is one triangle leg.

b, is the other triangle leg.

So, we are given the information:

a=22mph

b=4mph

So, calculating the resultant force (hypothenuse), we have:

Resultant=\sqrt{22^{2} +4^{2} }

Hence, the expression that would find the result velocity is:

a) [tex]Resultant=\sqrt{22^{2} +4^{2} }[/tex]

Have a nice day!
