Answer:

a. OOO, OON, ONO, NOO, ONN, NON, NNO, NNN

b. No, the variable is discrete.

c. x(OOO) = 3; x(OON) = 2;  x(ONO) = 2; x(NOO) = 2;  x(ONN) = 1; x(NON) = 1; x(NNO) = 1; x(NNN) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'O' represent an offer and 'N' represent a no offer.

a. The experimental outcomes are:

OOO, OON, ONO, NOO, ONN, NON, NNO, NNN

b. Let x be the number of offer mades (number of 'O's), it can only assume the values of 1, 2 or 3, and therefore is not continuous, it is a discrete random variable.

c.  The values of x for each outcome are:

x(OOO) = 3;

x(OON) = 2;  

x(ONO) = 2;

x(NOO) = 2;  

x(ONN) = 1;

x(NON) = 1;

x(NNO) = 1;

x(NNN) = 0

Complete parts (a) and (b) using the probability distribution below.
katen-ka-za [31]
Μ = (0×0.026) + (1×0.072) +(2×0.152) + (3×0.303) + (4×0.215) + (5×0.164) + (6×0.066) 
μ = 0 + 0.072 + 0.304 + 0.909 + 0.86 + 0.82 + 0.396
μ = 3.361 ≈ 3.4

We need the value of ∑X² to work out the variance
∑X² = (0²×0.026) + (1²×0.072) + (2²×0.152) + (3²×0.303) + (4²×0.215) + (5²×0.164) + (6²×0.066)
∑X² = 0+0.072+0.608+2.727+3.44+4.1+2.376
∑X² = 13.323

Variance = ∑X² - μ²
Variance  = 13.323 - (3.4)² = 1.763 ≈ 2

Standard Deviation = √Variance = √1.8 = 1.3416... ≈ 1.4

The correct answer related to the value of mean and standard deviation is the option D
