(b) From a sales force of 150 persons, one will be selected to attend a special sales meeting. If
52 of them are unmarried, 72 are college graduates and 3/4
th
of the 52 unmarried are college
graduates, find the probability that the salesperson selected at random will be neither single nor
a college graduate. 07
Q. 3 (a) List out the characteristics of Binomial and Poisson distribution along with the
parameters mean and standard deviation. 07

performance in different regions. Respondents are given a choice between the present method
of two reviews a year and a proposed new method of quality reviews. The responses are given
below
Details North South East West
