Which of the following statements must be true about the sample? A) The expected number of blue-collar workers donating to charity is less than 30. B) The expected number of management workers donating to charity is 100. C) The expected numbers of other white-collar and blue-collar workers donating to charity are the same. D) The expected number of other white-collar workers donating to charity is 50. E) The combined expected numbers of other white-collar and blue-collar workers donating to charity is greater than the expected number of management workers donating to charity.

E) The combined expected numbers of other white-collar and blue-collar workers donating to charity is greater than the expected number of management workers donating to charity.
Answer
Answer: B) The expected number of management workers donating to charity is 100.
Explanation: The expected number for each worker type is calculated based on the given proportions and the total sample size. For management workers, with 50% of the sample donating, the expected number is half of the total sample size.
