Answer:

a) The probability tree is constructed below

b) the probability that at least two women will be selected is 0.500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) The probability tree is as follows;

                                                 3 men, 3 women

                                                            ↓

           _______________________|________________________

            ↓                             ↓                                  ↓                               ↓

         3 men                    2 men                          1 man                        0 men

      0 women                1 woman                     2 woman                   3 women

b) the probability that at least two women will be selected

p( at least two women would be selected) = P( there are 2 women out of 3 ) + P( there 3 women out of 3

so

p( at least two women would be selected) = C

³C₂ × ³C₁ / ⁶C₃ + ³C₃³C₀ / ⁶C₃  

= 3!/(2!(3-2)!) × 3!/(1!(3-1)!)  / 6!/(3!(6-3)!) + 3!/(3!(3-3)!) × 3!/(0!(3-0)!) / 6!/3!(6-3)!)

= 3 × 3 / 20 + 1 ×  1 / 20

= 9/20 + 1/20

= 0.45 + 0.05

p( at least two women would be selected) = 0.500

Therefore, the probability that at least two women will be selected is 0.500

Answer:

p-value: 1.000

There is enough evidence at the 1% level of significance to suggest that the proportions are not equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will be conducting a difference of 2 proportions hypothesis test

The hypothesis for this test is:

H_0:  p1 - p2=0

H_a:  p1 - p2  ≠0

(p1 ) = 252/300 = 0.84

(p2) = 195/300 = 0.65

This is a 2 tailed test with a significance level of 1%.  So our critical values are:  z > 2.575  and z < -2.575

See the attached photo for the calculations for this test
