Talent Corp is a HR-consulting firm. The number of new clients that they have obtained each month has ranged from 0 to 6. The number of new clients has the probability distribution that is shown below. Number of New Clients Probability 0 0.05 1 0.10 2 0.15 3 0.30 4 0.25 5 0.10 6 0.05 Compute the expected number of new clients each month. Compute the variance and standard deviation for the expected number of new clients. What is the probability that there will be 2 or fewer clients next month?
Suppose we have a normal disbn. with mean=10 and variance=5. We draw a sample size of size 8 from this distribution and compute the sample variance, s². What is the probability that s² > 10?
If only 12% of men in a lost society were honest, compute the probability that the third man that you meet is the first honest man. Compute the values if the random variable: expected value, variance and standard deviation
Suppose the demand for a company’s product in week 1,2, & 3 are each normally distributed. The means are 50, 45, and 65. The standard deviations are 10,5, and 15. Assume these 3 demands are probabilistically independent. Suppose the company has 180 units in stock, and it will not be receiving any more shipments from its supplier for at least 3 weeks. What is the probability that stock will run out during the 3 week period? How many units should the company have in stock, so that it can be 98% certain of not running out during the 3 week period , assuming it will not receive any more shipments during this period?
When dragons on planet Pern lay eggs, the eggs are either green or yellow. The biologists have observed over the years that 20% of the eggs are yellow, and the rest green. Next spring the lead scientist has permission to randomly select 67 of the dragon eggs to incubate. Consider all the possible samples of 67 dragon eggs. What is the mean number of yellow eggs in samples of 67 eggs? (that is the same as asking for the expected value of the number of yellow eggs) (Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.) mean = What is the standard deviation in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 67? (Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.) standard deviation = What is the variance in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 67? (Remember to calculate the answer using at least 5 decimal places, then give answer correct to at least one decimal place.) variance =
