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

A candy company claims that its jelly bean mix contains 15% blue jelly beans. Suppose that the candies are packaged at random in
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Doubtful.

Step-by-step explanation:

Our values are,

P=0.15 \rightarrow 15\%Jelly Bean Mix.

The sample for us is n=200

And our proportion (x) is 40 .

We can calculate  with this dates the sample proportion and make he test statistic.

p=\frac{x}{n} = \frac{40}{200} = 0.20

H_0:P=0.15

H_1:P \neq 0.15

We use the formula for Test statistic, that is given by,

z= \frac{p-P}{\sqrt{\frac{P-(1-P)}{n}}}

z= \frac{0.20-0.15}{\sqrt{\frac{0.15(1-0.15)}{200}}}

z= 1.98

We see that our P-value: 0.048 (From the Table)

We note that p-value is less than 0.05, so we should to rejecyt the null hypothesis and conclude that the calim is doubtful

Carl King is a toy assembler. He is paid $5.25 for every toy he assembles. What is Carl's total pay for a week in which he compl
sineoko [7]

Multiplication was invented to help you avoid the tedium of adding ...

... $5.25 + 5.25 + 5.25 + ... + 5.25 . . . . . a total of 207 terms

It lets us figure such a sum by computing 207 × $5.25 = $1,086.75

Carl's pay for the week will be $1086.75.

FromTheMoon [43]

Solution:

Albert's medical expenses is =  $ 12,000

Sam's come = $ 8,000

Add the amount = 12000 + 8000 = $ 20000

Sue Jones is insured for the amount = 10/20

Now, find the insurance.

(10/20)*(20,000) = 10000

Hence, $10000 pay for the insurance.
