Answer:

E(X) =\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)

Replacing the values that we have:

1 = 0.98*a + 0.02(a-42) = 0.98a +0.02a -0.84

And solving for a we got:

1.84 = a

So then the premium value for the insurance on this case should be 1840 dollars.

Explanation:

For this case we can define the random variable X as the gain ( in thousand of dollars) of insurance company

We assume that the premium clase charge and amount of a to the company and we know from the info given that:

p(X=a) = 1-0.02 = 0.98

p(X = a-42) = 0.02

E(X) = 1 represent the expected gain in thousand of dollars

The expected value of a random variable X is the n-th moment about zero of a probability density function f(x) if X is continuous, or the weighted average for a discrete probability distribution, if X is discrete.

And using the definition for a discrete random variable we know that :

E(X) =\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)

Replacing the values that we have:

1 = 0.98*a + 0.02(a-42) = 0.98a +0.02a -0.84

And solving for a we got:

1.84 = a

So then the premium value for the insurance on this case should be 1840 dollars.

marshall27 [118]

When four infineon technologies executives participated in an international conspiracy to fix prices for computer memory chips, they were acting with other firms as a cartel.

Given an incomplete sentence related to infineon technologies.

We are required to fill the sentence by an appropriate term.

We can fill the sentence with "a cartel".

A cartel is basically a formal agreement among firms in an oligopolistic industry. Members of cartel may agree on such matters as prices, total industry output, market shares, allocation of customers, allocation of territories, bid-rigging, establishment of common sales agencies, and the division of profits or combination of these. It is basically a group of people who are collected to complete an objective.

Hence when four infineon technologies executives participated in an international conspiracy to fix prices for computer memory chips, they were acting with other firms as a cartel.
