of the following subjects:
1. Probability distribution.
2. Random variables and its types: discrete vs. Continuous.
3. Create probability distributions and apply the concepts of mean and standard deviation of probability distributions to managerial decisions and evaluate the results.
4. Create and analyze binomial and Poisson discrete probability distributions
5. Evaluate how one can make managerial decisions using probability distributions.
6. Analyze normal distributions and evaluate how they are used for making managerial decisions.
7. The Week Two assignment requires you to evaluate, analyze, and apply descriptive statistics techniques to real-world datasets. Chapter 5 discusses the mean of a discrete distribution (Black, 2017).
How can the mean of a probability distribution impact your decision-making process at work? Please provide a specific example.
Please refer to Chapter 5 to assist you in responding to the scenario. Reference: Black, K. (2017). Business statistics: For contemporary decision making (9th ed.). Hoboken, NJ: Wiley & Sons, Inc.
8. One of the objectives for Week Two is to analyze normal distributions and evaluate how they are used for making managerial decisions. According to Black (2017), many variables in business and industry are normally distributed. Some examples of variables that could produce normally distributed measurements include: The annual cost of household insurance, The cost per square foot of renting warehouse space, and A managers' satisfaction with support from ownership on a five-point scale.
In addition, most items produced or filled by machines are normally distributed (p. 172).
Provide an example of a variable that could produce normally distributed measurements in your professional or personal life, i.e. the annual cost of household food or the cost of production per employee. How can the normal distribution impact your decision making?
