In order to find the expected age, we must multiply the probability of picking each child by their age, then add them all up. Like this:

E(x) = 4(1/2) + 5(1/10) + 6(3/10) + 7(1/10)
E(x) = 5 years

By doing this we are giving each age group a percentage of the entire population.

Hope this helps!

Find the equation of the line specified.
OLga [1]
The point slope form of a straight line is y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y -(-3) = -7(x-5)

y + 3 = -7(x-5)

y = -7x + 35 - 3

y = -7x + 32
