The expected value of this policy to the insurance company is $285.00.

Using this formula

Policy expected value=Insurance policy charges-[(Probability × Claim)+(Probability × Claim)]

Let plug in the formula

Policy expected value=$1,300-{(.0041)($150,000)+(.08)($5,000)]

Policy expected value=$1,300-($615+$$400)

Policy expected value=$1,300-$1,015

Policy expected value=$285.00

Inconclusion the expected value of this policy to the insurance company is $285.00

Mean vs median:

Mean is the arithmetic average of all the entries while median is the middle entry after arranging in ascending order.

Median is not affected by extreme items but mean is very much affected by unusually high or low scores.

Here since the trophy is decided to be given to the highest mean score it is obvious that

She wants to take unusually of the good and bad games into account

Because of this only, mean is taken instead of median.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8 (x -3) +7 = 2x (4 -17)

8(x -3) +7 = 2x (-13)   here was the error because the had 13 that is incorrect

8x -24 +7 = -26x

8x -17 = -26x

-17 = -26x -8x

-17 = -34x

-17/-34 = x

1/2 =x
