In a pizza takeout restaurant, the following probability distribution was obtained for the number of toppings ordered on a large
Elis [28]

Answer:

The random variable (number of toppings ordered on a large pizza) has a mean of 1.14 and a standard deviation of 1.04.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete:</em>

<em>The probability distribution is:</em>

<em>x   P(x) </em>

<em> 0   0.30 </em>

<em>1    0.40 </em>

<em>2   0.20 </em>

<em>3   0.06 </em>

<em>4   0.04</em>

The mean can be calculated as:

M=\sum p_iX_i=0.3\cdot 0+0.4\cdot 1+0.2\cdot 2+0.06\cdot 3+0.04\cdot 4\\\\M=0+0.4+0.4+0.18+0.16\\\\M=1.14

(pi is the probability of each class, Xi is the number of topping in each class)

The standard deviation is calculated as:

s=\sqrt{\sum p_i(X_i-M)^2}\\\\s=\sqrt{0.3(0-1.14)^2+0.4(1-1.14)^2+0.2(2-1.14)^2+0.06(3-1.14)^2+0.04(4-1.14)^2}\\\\s=\sqrt{0.3(-1.14)^2+0.4(-0.14)^2+0.2(0.86)^2+0.06(1.86)^2+0.04(2.86)^2}\\\\ s=\sqrt{0.3(1.2996)+0.4(0.0196)+0.2(0.7396)+0.06(3.4596)+0.04(8.1796)}\\\\s=\sqrt{0.3899+0.0078+0.1479+0.2076+0.3272}\\\\ s=\sqrt{ 1.0804 }\\\\s\approx 1.04
