Answer:

The expected number of contracts the sales representative will get this week is 5.22

Step-by-step explanation:

For each client, there are only two possible outcomes. Either there is a sales contract, or there is not. The probability of having a sale contract with each client is independent of other clients. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

In this problem, we have that:

n = 18, p = 0.29

What is the expected number of contracts the sales representative will get this week?

E(X) = np = 18*0.29 = 5.22

The expected number of contracts the sales representative will get this week is 5.22
