Answer:

The expected value for the insurance company is $392.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of a random variable, <em>X</em> is:

E(X)=x\cdot P(X)

It is provided that a life insurance company sells a $100,000 one year term life insurance policy to a 30-year old male for $475.

The probability that the male survives the year is, P(S) = 0.999172.

Then the probability that the male does not survives the year is:

P (S') = 1 - P (S)

        = 1 - 0.999172

P (S') = 0.000828

The amount the company owes the male if he survives is, S = $475.

The amount the company owes the male if he does not survives is,

S' = $475 - $100,000 = -$99525.

Compute the expected value for the insurance company as follows:

E(\text{Insurance Company})=S\cdot P(S)+S'\cdot P(S')

                                     =(475\times 0.999172)+(-99525\times 0.000828)\\=474.6067-82.4067\\=392.20

Thus, the expected value for the insurance company is $392.20.

Determine whether the relationship between the circumfrance of a circle and its diameter is a direct variation. If so, identify
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The relationship between the circumference of a circle and its diameter represent  a direct variation and the constant of proportionality is equal to the constant \pi

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y=kx

where K is the constant of proportionality

In this problem we know that

The circumference of a circle is equal to

C=\pi D

therefore

the relationship between the circumference of a circle and its diameter is a direct variation and the constant of proportionality is equal to the constant \pi
