What is the expected value for the following probability distribution?

To calculate the expected value of our dataset, first we need to find the missing probability. The sum of the probabilities of all outcomes must add up to 1

\sum P(X)=1

Therefore, 1 minus all the other probability values is going to be P(2).

1-(0.04+0.05+0.2+0.1)=1-0.75=0.25

The expected value is given by the sum of every value of the dataset multiplied by its respective probability

E[X\rbrack=\sum P(x_i)x_i

Using this formula in our problem, we have:

\begin{gathered} E[X\rbrack=\sum_{i\mathop{=}1}^5P_i(x_i)x_i \\ =(0.4)\times(0)+(0.05)\times(1)+(0.25)\times(2)+(0.2)\times(3)+(0.1)\times(4) \\ =0+0.05+0.5+0.6+0.4 \\ =1.55 \end{gathered}

The expected value of this dataset is 1.55.

Answer:

option 3) EF= -7 FG= -7

Step-by-step explanation

X= 1/2

EF= 2X-8

    = 2 X 1/2 -8

    =1 - 8

EF = -7

FG= 4X -9

     = 4X 1/2

     2 - 9

FG     = -7
