Using it's formula, it is found that the mean of the discrete random variable is given by:
B. 30.47.
<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>.
Hence, considering the table, the mean of the discrete distribution is:
E(X) = 23 x 0.16 + 25 x 0.09 + 26 x 0.18 + 31 x 0.12 + 34 x 0.24 + 38 x 0.21 = 30.47.
Hence option B is correct.

Answer:
Weight gain = 84 lb 5 oz
Average weight gain = 6 lb 5 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
lb means pounds
16 oz = 1 pound
Convert the weight to pounds
Weight when she was born = 8 lb. 13 oz
= 8 pounds + 0.8125 pounds
= 8.8125 pounds
Present weight = 93 lb. 5
oz
= 93 pounds + 0.3125 pounds
= 93.3125 pounds
How much has she gained since birth
Weight gain = Present weight - Weight when she was born
= 93.3125 pounds - 8.8125 pounds
= 84.5 pounds
= 84 lb 5 oz
Weight gain = 84 lb 5 oz
what has been her average weight for each year if she is 13 year old
Average weight gain = Weight gain / 13
= 84.5 pounds / 13
= 6.5 pounds
= 6 lb 5 oz
Average weight gain = 6 lb 5 oz
