Advance Math

After being rejected for employment, Kim Kelly learns that theBellevue Credit Company has hired only two women among the last 22new employees. She also learns that the pool of applicants is verylarge, with an approximately equal number of qualified men asqualified women. Help her address the charge of genderdiscrimination by finding the probability of getting two or fewerwomen when 22 people are hired, assuming that there is nodiscrimination based on gender. (Report answer accurate to 8decimal places). P(at most two) = .00021 Incorrect Because this isa serious claim, we will use a stricter cutoff value for unusualevents. We will use 0.5% as the cutoff value (1 in 200 chance ofhappening by chance). With this in mind, does the resultingprobability really support such a charge?
