The following probability distributions of job satisfaction scores for a sample of information systems (IS) senior executives an

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate ;

1) the expected value of the job satisfaction score for senior executives ;

expected value = Summation (Px)

= 1 x 0.05 + 2 x 0.09 + 3 x 0.03 + 4 x 0.42 + 5 x 0.41

= 4.05

2) the expected value of the job satisfaction score for middle managers;

= 1 x 0.04 + 2 x 0.10 + 3 x 0.12 + 4 x 0.46 + 5 x 0.28

= 3.84

c) the variance of job satisfaction scores for executives and middle managers (to 2 decimals).

Executives ; Variance = Summation(PX^2 - Summation(PX)^2

i) For Executive Managers = 1 x 0.05 + 2^2 x 0.09 + 3^2 x 0.03 + 4^2 x 0.42 + 5^2 x 0.41 - 4.05^2 = 1.246 = 1.25

ii) for middle managers ; 1 x 0.04 + 2^2 x 0.10 + 3^2 x 0.12 + 4^2 x 0.46 + 5^2 x 0.28 - 3.84^2 = 1.134 = 1.13

d) the standard deviation of job satisfaction scores for both probability distributions (to 2 decimals). Executives, Middle managers;

For Executives = square root [ 1 x 0.05 + 2^2 x 0.09 + 3^2 x 0.03 + 4^2 x 0.42 + 5^2 x 0.41 - 4.05^2] = 1.12

For Middle Managers ; Square root [1 x 0.04 + 2^2 x 0.10 + 3^2 x 0.12 + 4^2 x 0.46 + 5^2 x 0.28 - 3.84^2 ] = 1.06

e) from the values gotten for the variance of both executive and middle managers, the variance of the former is more than that of the latter as such higher satisfaction with the executive managers.

A random sample of 144 recent donations at a certain blood bank reveals that 81 were type A blood. Does this suggest that the ac

Reptile [31]

Answer:

Null hypothesis: $p=0.4$

Alternative hypothesis: $p \neq 0.4$

$z=\frac{0.5625 -0.4}{\sqrt{\frac{0.4(1-0.4)}{144}}}=3.98$

$p_v =2*P(z>3.98)=0.0000689$

Since the p value is very low compared to the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true percent of people with type A of blood is significantly different from 0.4 or 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=144 represent the random sample taken

X=81 represent the number of people with type A blood

$\hat p=\frac{81}{144}=0.5625$ estimated proportion of people with type A blood

$p_o=0.4$ is the value that we want to verify

$\alpha=0.01$ represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

$p_v{/tex} represent the p value Hypothesis to testWe want to test if the percentage of the population having type A blood is different from 40%.: Null hypothesis:[tex]p=0.4$

Alternative hypothesis: $p \neq 0.4$

the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

Replacing the info given we got:

$z=\frac{0.5625 -0.4}{\sqrt{\frac{0.4(1-0.4)}{144}}}=3.98$

Now we can calculate the p value with this probability taking in count the alternative hypothesis:

$p_v =2*P(z>3.98)=0.0000689$

Since the p value is very low compared to the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true percent of people with type A of blood is significantly different from 0.4 or 40%
