Answer:

Expectation number of books a customer will​ purchase  =  1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

x     :​ 0      1              2

p(x) :0.2​,  0.3​, and 0.5​

Expectation

E(X) = ∑x P(x)

      = 0 X 0.2 +1 X 0.3+ 2 X 0.5

     = 1.3

Expectation  E(X) =  1.3

Expectation number of books a customer will​ purchase  =  1.3
