Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 5y = 21 * (-4) •••••• -12x -20y = -84 (a)

4x - 2y = -24 * (3) •••••• 12x -6y = -72 (b)

(a) + (b)

-26y = -156

y = 6

3x + 5 * 6 = 21

3x = 21 - 30

3x = -9

x = -3

The total claim amount for a health insurance policy follows a distribution with density function 1 ( /1000) ( ) 1000 x fx e− =

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected is $\mathbf{P(X>1100n) = 0.158655}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the density function of the total claim amount for the health insurance policy is given as :

$f_x(x) = \dfrac{1}{1000}e^{\frac{-x}{1000}}, \ x> 0$

Thus, the expected total claim amount $\mu$ = 1000

The variance of the total claim amount $\sigma ^2 = 1000^2$

However; the premium for the policy is set at the expected total claim amount plus 100. i.e (1000+100) = 1100

To determine the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected if 100 policies are sold; we have :

P(X > 1100 n )

where n = numbers of premium sold

$P (X> 1100n) = P (\dfrac{X - n \mu}{\sqrt{n \sigma ^2 }}> \dfrac{1100n - n \mu }{\sqrt{n \sigma^2}})$

$P(X>1100n) = P(Z> \dfrac{\sqrt{n}(1100-1000}{1000})$

$P(X>1100n) = P(Z> \dfrac{10*100}{1000})$

$P(X>1100n) = P(Z> 1) \\ \\ P(X>1100n) = 1-P ( Z \leq 1) \\ \\ P(X>1100n) =1- 0.841345$

$\mathbf{P(X>1100n) = 0.158655}$

Therefore: the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected is $\mathbf{P(X>1100n) = 0.158655}$
