Answer:

\mu = 5.2

\sigma = 2.257

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n = 260 -- samples

p = \frac{1}{50} --- one in 50

Solving (a): The mean

This is calculated as:

\mu = np

\mu = 260 * \frac{1}{50}

\mu = 5.2

Solving (b): The standard deviation

This is calculated as:

\sigma = \sqrt{\mu * (1-p)}

\sigma = \sqrt{5.2 * (1-1/50)}

\sigma = \sqrt{5.2 * 0.98}

\sigma = \sqrt{5.096}

\sigma = 2.257

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

FV= $123,879.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Montlhy deposit (A)= $100

Monthly interest rate (i)= 0.09/12= 0.0075

Number of periods (n)= 12*26= 312 months

<u>To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

FV= {100*[(1.0075^312) - 1]} / 0.0075

FV= $123,879.85
