Some please help with this problem, I have tried multiple time but still couldn't get the right answer. :(
1 answer:
Given data:
Total number of songs = 8
Rock songs = 3
Reggae songs = 2
Country songs = 3
Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes
To find:
When song is selected randomly to play first song and then second song from remaining ones ,
Probability when both the songs are from Reggae songs,
Thus , the probability is 1/28.

Answer:
The expected value for the insurance company is $392.20.
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value of a random variable, <em>X</em> is:
It is provided that a life insurance company sells a $100,000 one year term life insurance policy to a 30-year old male for $475.
The probability that the male survives the year is, P(S) = 0.999172.
Then the probability that the male does not survives the year is:
P (S') = 1 - P (S)
= 1 - 0.999172
P (S') = 0.000828
The amount the company owes the male if he survives is, S = $475.
The amount the company owes the male if he does not survives is,
S' = $475 - $100,000 = -$99525.
Compute the expected value for the insurance company as follows:
Thus, the expected value for the insurance company is $392.20.
