Assume that a driver faces the following loss distribution:Outcome Probability12,000 0.15 0 0.851. What is the expected loss?2.

What is the standard deviation of loss?Now assume that this driver pools her losses with another driver facing the same loss distribution, and that the losses are not correlated.1. What is the expected loss for each member of the pool?2. What is the standard deviation of loss for each member of the pool?These two drivers decide to pool their losses with two other drivers with the same loss distribution, and all losses are not correlated. (This four-person group will be called Group A)1. What is the expected loss for each member of the pool?2. What is the standard deviation of loss for each member of the pool?These four drivers are considering pooling their losses with another group of four drivers (Group B) facing a different loss distribution (for each driver in the group):Outcome Probability28,000 0.0210,000 0.23 0 0.751. What is the expected loss for each member of this new pool of four drivers?2. What is the standard deviation of loss for each member of this new pool?Now, Group A and Group B decide to pool their risks, becoming a single pool of eight drivers (Group C).1. What is the expected loss for each member of this new 8-person pool of drivers?2. The standard deviation for each member of this new 8-person pool is fairly complicated to calculate. Directionally, though, how would you expect the standard deviation for the members of Group C to compare with the standard deviations of Group A and Group B (Higher/Lower/No Change). Why?If each driver were required to contribute an equal share to the Group C pool to cover losses, would the people in Group A choose to enter Group C? Would the drivers in Group B want to join the pool? Why or why not?If each driver were required to contribute an amount proportional to their own expected loss (this means that if the actual losses of Group C were equal to the Group C expected loss, then Group A drivers would contribute an amount equal to the Group A expected loss and Group B would make a contribution equal to the Group B expected loss), would the people in Group A choose to join the pool? Would the people in Group B want to join the pool? Why or why not?Finally, there is another group of four drivers (Group D) with the yet another loss distribution:Outcome Probability60,000 0.0125,000 0.1010,000 0.300 0.591. What is the expected loss for each member of Group D?2. What is the standard deviation for each member of Group D?3. Under what conditions, if any, would the Group A drivers be willing to pool with the members of Group D to become a single pool of eight drivers?

Answer:

- 1800 ; 4284.8579 ;

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table :

Outcome _____ probability

-12000 ________ 0.15

__ 0 __________ 0.85

Expected loss, m: Σx*p(x)

(-12000 * 0.15) + (0 * 0.85)

-1800 + 0 = - 1800

Standard deviation = sqrt(Var(x))

Var(x) = Σx²*p(x) - m²

(-12000^2 * 0.15) + (0^2 * 0.85)] - 1800^2

21,600,000 - 3240000

= 18360000

Standard deviation = sqrt(18360000)

Standard deviation = 4284.8579

Answer:

about 65.4 inches cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is 4/3πr^3.

V = 4/3πr^3

   = 4/3π(2.5^3)

   = 20.83π = <u>about 65.4 inches cubed</u>

Nora had already read 30% of the book before her teacher assigned it to the class. She is choosing between two options to finish
guapka [62]

Answer:

Let p represent the # of pages in the book.  Then, Nora has already read 0.30p pages and has 0.70p pages left to read.

If she reads 25% pages/night, that means reading 0.25(0.70)p pages per night, or 17.5 pages/night.  If 28% p/n, that means 0.28(0.70)p pages/night, or 19.6p pages/night.

How many nights will it take Nora to finish the book if she reads 25% of 7/10 of the book per night?  Without any calculations, we can answer this by "4 nights, since she reads 1/4 of the unread portion of the book per night."

If she reads 28% of 7/10 of the book per night, that will require fewer nights:

First night:  28%

Second night:  28%  

Third night:  28%

 Total:  3(28%) = 84%

This leaves 16% to read on the final night.

This is one interpretation of what I think is a poorly worded question.

The author of this question might have meant reading 25% of the remaining unread pages per night, which leads to a different answer.

Whixh formula should be used to find the circumference of a circle?<br>​
Andrej [43]
To calculate the circumference of a circle, multiply the diameter of the circle with π (pi). The circumference can also be calculated by multiplying 2×radius with pi (π=3.14).
