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.

A jar contains 5 orange marbles, 3 black marbles, and 6 brown marbles. event a = drawing a brown marble on the first draw event
tino4ka555 [31]

The probability of event A and event B IS  15/91.

What is the probability?

Probability determines the odds that a random event would occur. The odds lie between 0 and 1.

The probability of event A  = number of brown marbles / total number of marbles

= 6/14

The probability of event B = number of orange marbles / total number of marbles -1

= 5/13

P(A and B) =6/14 x 5/13

                 = 30/182

                 = 15/91

it costs $36.75 for 3 tickets to visit the science center. it costs $51 for 4 tickets to visit the zoo. which attraction will co
lord [1]

Find the cost for one ticket for the science center.

36.75 ÷ 3 = 12.25

Multiply the product with 12 to get the cost of 12 tickets.

12.25 × 12 = 147

Find the cost of 1 zoo ticket.

51 ÷ 4 = 12.75

Find the cost of 12 tickets by multiplying the product and 12

12.75 × 12 = $153

12 Science Center Tickets cost $147

12 zoo tickets cost $153


The <u><em>Zoo</em></u> costs more than the Science Center.


To find out how much more the Zoo costed, subtract 147 from 153.

153 - 147 = 6

The zoo only costs <u><em>$6 </em></u>more for 12 students.

So, you're answers are Zoo and $6

stira [4]

Answer:

a. p(x<= 5) = .15 + .4 + .25 = .8

C. .4(4.2) = 1.68

5.4(1-.4) = 3.24

3.24 + 1.68 = 4.92 ,, 4.92 > 4.55 so short is better
