8
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
d. Based on your calculations in parts b and c, do the employees
reflect the regional trend? Support your answer with statistical
calculations and reasoning. Choose the correct answer below.
A. Yes, because the probabilities found in parts b and c are small,
which means that the assumption that the employees followed the
regional trend could be valid. B. No, because the probabilities
found in parts b and c are small, which means that the assumption
that the employees followed the regional trend is probably not
valid. C. Yes, because the probabilities found in parts b and c are
not small, which means that the assumption that the employees
followed the regional trend could be valid. D. No, because the
probabilities found in parts b and c are not small, which means
that the assumption that the employees followed the regional trend
