a) 125 < 128

b) The maximum probability that all 130 women are with college degree is 130 < 128 (this is not possible)

The minimum probability that none of the 130 women are college holders = 0 < 128 (this is possible)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of employees = 255

If the probability is less than 1/2 that the employee selected will be a woman who has college degree, we have

Women with college degree < 255/2

< 128

a) if 130 of the company employee do not have college degree, we consider that all the college degree holders are women.

The women with college degree = 255 - 130

= 125

Therefore; 125 < 128 ( this is possible)

b) If 125 of the company employees are men, the number of women = 250 -125

= 130 women

The maximum probability that all 130 women are with college degree is 130 < 128 (this is not possible)

The minimum probability that none of the 130 women are college holders = 0 < 128 (this is possible)

Answer from: Quest

see below

step-by-step explanation:

7. there are 10 data points in the set. the middle point is between 5 and 6. the middle point in the top half is 8 and the middle point in the bottom half is 3. to find the iqr , take point 8 and subtract point 3

mid term point 8 = 100 point 3 = 88

iqr = 100-88 = 12

final point 8 = 93 point 3 = 78

iqr = 93 - 78 = 15

the final has the greatest iqr

6. b - there is a high data value that causes the data set to be asymmetrical for the males: the data for males are high and asymmetrical . there is an outlier for the males that skews the data

5. the iqr is a better measure of spread for the movies and basketball games. since the basketball game has an outlier, we do not want to use standard deviation for measurement.

3. the exam median is much higher than the class median. the median line is farther to the right on the exams

2. there is no way to tell what the means are from the box and whisker plots.

Exercise: counting committees 0.0/2.0 puntos (calificable) we start with a pool of n people. a chaired committee consists of k≥1 members, out of whom one member is designated as the chairperson. the expression k(nk) can be interpreted as the number of possible chaired committees with k members. this is because we have (nk) choices for the k members, and once the members are chosen, there are then k choices for the chairperson. thus, c=∑k=1nk(nk) is the total number of possible chaired committees of any size. find the value of c (as a function of n ) by thinking about a different way of forming a chaired committee: first choose the chairperson, then choose the other members of the committee. the answer is of the form c=(α+nβ)2γn+δ. what are the values of α , β , γ , and δ ?
