A freequency distribution is shown below. Complete parts (a) through (e).
The number of overtime hourss worked in one week per employee
overtime hours 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Employees 7 18 27 57 44 33 15
a) Use the frequency distribution to construct a probablity distribution.
x P(x)
0 ?
1 ?
2 ?
3 ?
4 ?
5 ?
6 ?
(Round to the nearest thousandth as needed)
B) Find the mean of the probability distribution.
u= ? ( Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
C) Find the variance of the probability distribution.
o^2=? (round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
d) Find the standard deviation of the probabiliity distribution.
0= ? ( Round to the nearest tenth a neeeded.)
e) Interpret the results in the context of the real-life situation.
a) An employee workks an average of 1.5 overtime hours per week with a standard diviation of approximately 3.4 hours.
b) Ann employeee works an average 3.4 of overtime hours per week with a standard deviation of approximately 7 hours.
c) An employee works an average of 3.4 overtime hours per week with a standard deviation of approximately 1.5 hours.
d) An employee works an average of 2.2 overtime hours per week with a standard deviation of approximately 1.5 hours.
Solution
Mean is 3.4 mostly in the middle of the x value. Hence not skewed much.
But not fully symmetrical.
----------------------------------
a) c) An employee works an average of 3.4 overtime hours per week with a standard deviation of approximately 1.5 hours.
