Answer:

The expected number of new claims filed each day is 1.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following probability distribution:

P(X = 0) = 0.25

P(X = 1) = 0.15

P(X = 2) = 0.25

P(X = 3) = 0.25

P(X = 4) = 0.1

a. What is the expected number of new claims filed each day

Multiplication of each outcome by its probability, so:

E(X) = 0*0.25 + 1*0.15 + 2*0.25 + 3*0.25 + 4*0.1 = 1.8

The expected number of new claims filed each day is 1.8.
