(a) HR Manager is exploring absenteeism from work in a year by the middle

management of a company. A sample of 10 Managers revealed the

following number of days they were absent

(i) Calculate Mean, Median, Mode and Standard deviation.

Q1 (a). Assume that the number of errors experienced in a Local Area Network (LAN)
is Poisson distributed random variable. The mean number of network errors experienced
in a day are 2.4. What is the probability that in any given day -

(i) Zero network errors will occur?

(ii) Two or more network errors will occur?
(iii) Compute variance and standard deviation of the distribution.

HR Vice President has evolved an Aptitude Test for selection of employees. He wants to see
its efficacy by correlating the Aptitude test score with the Job performance levels. The table
shows the Aptitude test score vis-a vis Job Performance of ten employees selected

(a) Compute the coefficient of correlation between Aptitude test score and ok
Job performance.
(b) Should the HR vice President be satisfied with the efficacy of Aptitude Test?
If yes – why so? If not – why not?
(c) Compute the coefficient of determination and Interpret. ok
(d) Develop a scatter diagram with Aptitude test score as an independent variable.
(e) Develop an estimated Regression equation that can be used to predict Job ok
performance given the Aptitude test score.
(f) Use the estimated Regression equation to predict Job performance level Ok
for Aptitude score of 70 %

(b) Should the HR vice President be satisfied with the efficacy of Aptitude Test?
If yes – why so? If not – why not?
Answer:- The corelation value is greater than 50 % hence we can state the HR Vice president should be satisfied with the resu

(f) Use the Aptitude score of 70 %
