Answer:

The expected number of sales of this store from this sample of 30 is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each prospect, there are only two possible outcomes. Either there is a trade, or there is not. Prospects are independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

A retail variety store that advertises extensively by mail circulars expects a sale with 20% probability.

This means that p = 0.2

Suppose 30 prospects are randomly selected from a city-wide mailing.

This means that n = 30

What is the expected number (mean) of sales of this store from this sample of 30?

E(X) = np = 30*0.2 = 6

The expected number of sales of this store from this sample of 30 is 6.

Ronald saves 10.00 to buy a new book. The book original price was 15 but it was on sale for 35% off with a 6% sales tax. Does he
Lady bird [3.3K]
$6.89

The book is $10. Minus the 35% discount ($10X0.35=$3.50). So the subtotal is $10-$3.50=$6.50.

Tax is 6%. So 0.06X$6.50=$0.39

The total including tax is $6.50+$0.39=$6.89
