I believe the answer is 3/8. The whole portion of employees, which is translated as 8/8 is deducted by 5/8, which is the population of male employees.

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

5/8 of the staff are male.  The entire staff is represented by the fraction 8/8.  Taking 5/8 from this, we are left with

8/8-5/8 = 3/8 of the staff are female.

In Quebec, 90 percent of the population subscribes to the Roman Catholic religion. In a random sample of eight Quebecois, find t
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Probability that the sample contains at least five Roman Catholics = 0.995 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that In Quebec, 90 percent of the population subscribes to the Roman Catholic religion.

The Binomial distribution probability is given by;

 P(X = r) = \binom{n}{r}p^{r}(1-p)^{n-r} for x = 0,1,2,3,.......

Here, n = number of trials which is 8 in our case

         r = no. of success which is at least 5 in our case

         p = probability of success which is probability of Roman Catholic of

                 0.90 in our case

So, P(X >= 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8)

= \binom{8}{5}0.9^{5}(1-0.9)^{8-5} + \binom{8}{6}0.9^{6}(1-0.9)^{8-6} + \binom{8}{7}0.9^{7}(1-0.9)^{8-7} + \binom{8}{8}0.9^{8}(1-0.9)^{8-8}

= 56 * 0.9^{5} * (0.1)^{3} + 28 * 0.9^{6} * (0.1)^{2} + 8 * 0.9^{7} * (0.1)^{1} + 1 * 0.9^{8}

= 0.995

Therefore, probability that the sample contains at least five Roman Catholics is 0.995.

A building engineer analyzes a concrete column with a circular cross section. The circumference of the column is 18 \pi18π18, pi
katrin [286]

The area of the cross section of the column is 18 \pi \ m^2

Explanation:

Given that a building engineer analyzes a concrete column with a circular cross section.

Also, given that the circumference of the column is 18 \pi meters.

We need to determine the area of the cross section of the column.

The area of the cross section of the column can be determined using the formula,

Area= \pi r^2

First, we shall determine the value of the radius r.

Since, given that circumference is 18 \pi meters.

We have,

2 \pi r=18 \pi

   r=9

Thus, the radius is r=9

Now, substituting the value r=9 in the formula Area= \pi r^2, we get,

Area = \pi (9)^2

Area = 81 \pi

Thus, the area of the cross section of the column is 18 \pi \ m^2
