A survey conducted for the Northwestern National Life Insurance Company revealed that 70% of American workers say job stress caused frequent health problems. One in three said they expected to burn out in the job in the near future. Thirty-four percent said they thought seriously about quitting their job last year because of workplace stress. Fifty-three percent said they were required to work more than 40 hours a week very often or somewhat often.

Appendix A Statistical Tables

a. Suppose a random sample of 10 American workers is selected. What is the probability that more than seven of them say job stress caused frequent health problems?

(Round to 3 decimal places.) What is the expected number of workers who say job stress caused frequent health problems?

(Round to the nearest integer.) b. Suppose a random sample of 15 American workers is selected. What is the expected number of these sampled workers who say they will burn out in the near future?

(Round to the nearest integer.) What is the probability that none of the workers say they will burn out in the near future?

(Round to 4 decimal places.) c. Suppose a sample of seven workers is selected randomly. What is the probability that all seven say they are asked very often or somewhat often to work more than 40 hours a week?

(Round to 4 decimal places.)
