An insurance company charges Ted E. Bear $1400 per year for insurance on his home. The company has predicted that there is a 10%

chance that Ted will make a claim on the policy of $5000. Create a probability distribution and determine what the insurance company can expect to make on this policy, on average?

Answer:

$900  

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The amount Ted pays per year for insurance on his home = $1,400

The value of the insurance policy = $5000

The chance that Ted will make a claim on the policy = 10%

The expected value is given as follows

Incidence                     Probability(p)        Value(v)                                   v × p

A claim is made            0.1                  $5,000 - $1,400 = -$3,600     -$360

No claim                        0.9                 $1,400                                       $1260

Expected value is $1,260 - $360 = $900

The value the insurance company can be expected to make on average on the policy is $900

Find f(-5) f(x) -4x + 3
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

if f(x)= -4x+3

f(-5)= 23

Step-by-step explanation:

first you substitute x for -5

f(-5)= -4(-5)+3

then you multiply

-4(-5)

f(-5)=20+3

you get the positive 20 because negative times negative equals positive

then you just add the rest (20+3) which will give you your answer

f(-5)= 23

The scheduled arrival time for a daily flight from Boston to New York is 9:30 am. Historical data show that the arrival time fol
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable representing the flight arrival time from Boston to New York.

For a uniform probability distribution, the notation is

X U(a, b) where a is the lowest value of x and b is the lowest value of x

The probability density function, f(x) = 1/(b - a)

Mean, µ = (a + b)/2

Standard deviation, σ = √(b - a)²/12

From the information given, the time difference in minutes is 9:57 - 9:07 = 50 minutes. Therefore,

a = 0

b = 50

µ = (0 + 50)/2 = 25

σ = √(50 - 0)²/12 = 14.43

b) converting to minutes, it is 9:30 - 9:07 = 23 minutes

the probability that a flight arrives late(later than 9:30 am) is expressed as P(x > 23)

f(x) = 1/(50) = 0.02

P(x > 23) = (50 - 23)0.02 = 0.54

Alright, so we plug (-2) in for x. (-2)^2 =4, and we can plug that in as 4(4)+(-2)+5. Next, 4*4=16, so we get 15+(-2)+5. After that, we get 15-2+5=18
