Question

The probability of selecting 3 female employees and 7 male employees to win a promotional trip a company with 10 female and 50 male employees would best be modeled with the _______.

Answer 1

The best model is hypergeometric distribution.

Explanation:

The probability would be best modeled with hypergeometric distribution.

Hypergeometric distribution is a discrete probability distribution that describes the probability of successes in draws, without replacement, which is often employed in random sampling for statistical quality control.

The hypergeometric distribution differs from the binomial distribution in the lack of replacements.

Thus, the best model is hypergeometric distribution.
