Your company uses a pre employment of the test to screen applicants for the job of repairman.the test is passed by 60%of the applicants.Among those who pass the test 80% complete training successfully. In an experiment,a random sample of applicant who do not pass the test is also employed. Training is successfully completed by only 50%of this group.if no pre Employment test is used,what percentage of applicants would you expect to complete training successfully?

As a warehouse manager, it is your responsibility to inspect a large shipment of components for defects. Two independent random samples, each of size 20 of these components will be checked, and the shipment will be accepted if fewer than 3 of these components are defective in both samples. What is the probability of accepting a shipment containing 10% defectives?
Of all 3- to 5-year-old children, 56% are enrolled in school. If a sample of 500 such children is randomly selected, find the probability that the sample proportion of students who are enrolled in school is greater than 0.5.
. If tossing a loaded coin gives heads 60% of times, what is the likelihood (probability) of observing heads 50 times or fewer out of 100 tosses? 12 The probability of observing heads 50 times or fewer out of 100 would be 0.03 or 3 percent. use excel.
A study reported that about 40% of high school students have tried out for a sport at their school. To find out if this applies to Jessica’s school, she surveyed an SRS of 20 students. Nine of them said that they had tried out for a sport. To see if this result is surprising, a simulation is to be conducted to estimate the probability of obtaining a sample result as high as this one. Let 0–3 represent students who tried out for a sport and 4–9 represent students who did not try out for a sport. Using the line of random numbers to run one simulation, what proportion of students tried out for a sport? 0.40 0.45 0.50 0.60
A class president is favored by 53% of all students voting, assuming this is accurate, a random sample of 400 students are surveyed. 1. What is the probability that less than 49% will favor this student? 2. What is the probability that more than 57% will favor the student?
1. Power companies severely trim trees growing near their lines to avoid power failures due to falling limbs in storms. Applying a chemical to slow the growth of the trees is cheaper than trimming, but the chemical kills some of the trees. Suppose that one such chemical would kill 20% of sycamore trees. The power company tests the chemical on 250 sycamores. Consider this a SRS from the population of all sycamore trees. Calculate the probability that less than 24% of the tress in the sample are killed. (Hint: Shape, Center, Spread, Curve, Calculations, Conclusion....)
A pharmaceutical company is running trials on a new test for anabolic steroids. The company uses the test on 400 athletes known to be using steroids and 200 athletes known not to be using steroids. Of those using steroids, the new test is positive for 375 and negative for 25. Of those not using steroids, the test is positive for 25 and negative for 175. What is the relative frequency of a false negative result (the probability that an athlete using steroids will test negative)? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) What is the relative frequency of a false positive result (the probability that an athlete not using steroids will test positive)? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
