Answer:

b. 9.2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the expected waiting time for a random call from the sampie given by using the formula:

\sum (f(X)) = \dfrac{\sum f (x) \times x}{\sum x}

number of calls (x)           waiting time f(x) in minutes         f(x) *(x)

0                                                     0                                         0            

2                                                     3                                         6

4                                                     10                                       40

6                                                     15                                       90  

8                                                     10                                       80

10                                                     6                                       60  

\sum x = 30                                                                          \sum f(x) *x = 276

Therefore:

\sum (f(X)) = \dfrac{276}{30}

\sum (f(X)) = 9.2
