Was the outcome of 5 women and 3 men was believable using 2 specific results from the data provided? 

• How does the mean number of female pilots from the data support the conclusion.

• How does the percent of outcome with 5 or more females in your simulation support the conclusion.

 

Percent of 5 or more females in the data = 0.075

An airline has just finished training 25 pilots - 15 male and 10 female - to become captains. Unfortunately, only eight captain positions are available right now. Airline managers announce that they will use a lottery to determine which pilots will fill the available positions. The names of all 25 pilots will be written on identical slips of paper. The slips will be placed in a hat, mixed thoroughly, and drawn out one at a time until all eight captains have been identified. A day later, managers announce the results of the lottery. Of the 8 captains chosen, 5 are female and 3 are male. Some of the male pilots who weren't selected suspect that the lottery was not carried out fairly. One of these pilots asks your statistics class for advice about whether to file a grievance with the pilots' union.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Here in this question, it is given that an airline has just finished training 25 pilots - 15 males and 10 female - to become captains. Only eight captain positions are available. Now 8 pilots are randomly selected where 5 are female and 3 are male. 

Now here we are using a left skewed distribution for number of female pilots to check if the number of female pilots selected is random are not.
