A true-false quiz with 10questions was given to a statistics class. Following is the probability distribution for the score of a

randomly chosen student. Find the mean score and interpret the result. Round the answers to two decimal places as needed.
x 5 6 7 8 9 10
Px 0.06 0.12 0.33 0.29 0.13 0.07

Using the mean <u>formula and it's interpretation</u>, it is found that:

1. The mean is 7.52.

2. If we were to give this quiz to more and more students, the mean score for these students would approach 7.52.

The mean of a discrete distribution is given by the <u>sum of each outcome divided by it's respective probability</u>.

Hence, in this problem, according to the <u>distribution given</u>, the mean is:

E(X) = 5(0.06) + 6(0.12) + 7(0.33) + 8(0.29) + 9(0.13) + 10(0.07) = 7.52

The mean is 7.52.

The <em>interpretation </em>is that over many trials, the mean would approach 7.52.

-4 is more Negative, therefore it’s considered as Less than -2.

If u Consider the Number Line,

negative numbers(Left), 0, Positive Numbers(right)

The number on the right side is more greater than on the Left

-2 is greater because it’s nearer positive values

Therefore -2 is Greater than -4

The average number of transactions made at an ATM in a 20 minute period is 10. Use an appropriate probability distribution to fi
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The probability that exactly 6 transactions will be made at an ATM in the next 20 minutes = 0.06306 = 0.0631 to 4d.p

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Poisson distribution problem

The Poisson distribution formula is given as

P(X = x) = (e^-λ)(λˣ)/x!

where λ = mean = 10 transactions per 20 minutes

x = variable whose probability is required = 6 transactions in the next 20 minutes

P(X = 6) = (e⁻¹⁰)(10⁶)/6! = 0.06306
