Answer:

2 people worked for 4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given X = No. of hours worked

And we are also given that No. of people work for the manager = 50   

X = 3, 4 , 5 , 6 , 7, 8

P(X) = 0.1 , ? , 0.14 , 0.3 , 0.36 , 0.06

Since sum of all the probabilities =1

So,

0.1 + ? + 0.14 + 0.3 +  0.36 + 0.06 =1

0.96+? =1

? = 1 - 0.96

? = 0.04

So, probability of no. of people worked for 4 hours = 0.04

P(4)=0.04

So, no. of people worked for 4 hours =50*P(X)

                                                              =50*0.04

                                                              =2

Hence 2 people worked for 4 hours.

Answer:

c. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : X = No. of hours worked

           No. of people work for the manager = 50

           X = 3, 4 , 5 , 6 , 7, 8

           P(X) = 0.1 , ? , 0.14 , 0.3 , 0.36 , 0.06

To Find : No. of people work for four hours

Solution : First understand the fact that sum of all probabilities is equal to 1

So, sum of all values of P(X) = 1

⇒0.1+?+0.14+0.3+0.36+0.06 = 1

⇒0.96+? = 1

⇒?= 1-0.96

⇒? = 0.04

So, the probability of no. of people worked for 4 hours is 0.04.

⇒P(4)=0.04

Thus , To calculate no. of people work for four hours :

0.04\times 50

⇒ 2 no. of people work for four hours per shift .
