Answer:

The answer is "\frac{2}{15}" .

Explanation:

\to x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5\\\\\to p(x) \ for \ x  \ =   0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 = 0\\\\ \to c, 2c, 3c , 4c, 5c = 1\\\\\to 0 + c + 2c + 3c + 4c + 5c = 1\\\\\to 15c = 1\\\\\to c = \frac{1}{15}\\

\to p(x) \ for \ x  \ =   0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 = 0\\\\ \to \frac{1}{15}, \frac{2}{15}, \frac{3}{15}, \frac{4}{15}, \frac{5}{15}  

\to P(X=2)=\frac{2}{15}

Which of the following would LEAST likely foster diversity in the workplace?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": changing the culture through diversity training education programs.

Explanation:

Boosting diversity at the workplace is an activity that mainly relies on the representatives of the Human Resources (HR) Department. They are in charge of recruiting and selecting the applicants that will be part of the institution based on their capabilities and expertise. Thus, HR representatives could promote the selection of different individuals from different ages, races, gender, ethnicity, and nationality, without preferring one or another, so the working environment will be diversified and the company can take advantage of the different backgrounds of those new hires.

Therefore, <em>training other employees could improve the understanding of other employees on dealing with workers different than them but this does not foster diversity in the workplace.</em>
