Answer:

The probability that such a driver will be involved in an accident during the first seventy-five days of the year is 0.408

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provide information.

The probability that such a driver will be involved in an accident in the first forty days is 0.25.

Therefore, P(X\leq 40)=0.25

Where is X represents the random variable that shows time between beginning of a year and an accident.

X is the exponential distribution with λ as a parameter.

P(X\leq x)=1-e^{-\lambda x}, x\geq 0

Therefore,

P(X\leq 40)=1-e^{-40\lambda}

1-e^{-40\lambda}=0.25

e^{-40\lambda}=0.75\\-40\lambda=ln(0.75)\\\lambda=0.00719\approx0.007192

Now we want the probability that a driver will be involved in an accident during the first seventy five days.

P(X\leq 75)=1-e^{-75\times 0.0072}=0.408

Hence, the probability that such a driver will be involved in an accident during the first seventy-five days of the year is 0.408

Standard deviation = √(n * p * q)

You are given n and p

q = 1 - p

q = 1 -0.2 = 0.8

Standard deviation = √(21 * 0.2 * 0.8)

=√3.36 = 1.83

The answer is A.
