Using the given discrete distribution, it is found that the expected value is of $863.93.
<h3>What is the mean of a discrete distribution?</h3>
The expected value of a discrete distribution is given by the <u>sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability</u>.
In this problem, the distribution of costs is given by:
Hence, the expected value is given by:
E(X) = 0.87 x 986 + 0.13 x 47 = $863.93.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be 9x and the width = 8x
Perimeter = 2(l + w) = 2(9x + 8x) = 2(17x) = 34x = 68
x = 68/34 = 2
9x = 9(2) = 18 ft
8x = 8(2) = 16 ft
Therefore, dimensions are 18 ft by 16ft
