Answer:

552; 6.6452 (approx)

Explanation:

Given that,

Car recovered, p = 92% of the time

Number of cars stolen, n = 600 (randomly selected)

Probability of not recovering: (1 - p) = 1 - 0.92

                                                          = 0.08

Mean = Number of observations × Probability of recovering

         = 600 × 0.92

         = 552

Standard deviation:

= \sqrt{n\times p\times (1-p)}

= \sqrt{600\times 0.92\times 0.08}

=\sqrt{44.16}

= 6.64529909

Therefore, the mean and standard deviation of the number of cars recovered after being​ stolen is 552 and 6.6452(approx), respectively.
