High school students in Michigan sometimes get "snow days" in the winter when the roads are so bad that school is canceled for the day. Define the random variableX = the number of snow days at a certain high school in Michigan for a randomly selected school year. Suppose the table below gives the probability distribution of X. 1. Value x, 1. 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Probability p, ? 0.19 0.14 0.10 0.07 0.05 0.04 0.04 0.02 0.01 0.01 (a) Write the event “the school year has O snow days" in terms of X. Then find its probability. (b) At this high school, if more than 5 snow days are used over the course of the year, students are required to make up the time at the end of the school year. What's the probability that a randomly selected school year will require make-up days?
Megan has purchased the insurance policy from an insurance company to cover the value of hers new car in case if it gets totaled for the price of $1500 per year. Megan's car worth $20000 and the probability of her totaling the car during the length of the policy is estimated to be 0.4%. Let XX be the insurance company's profit. Answer the following questions: 1. Create the probability distribution table for XX : XX outcome profit xx ,$ P(X=x)P(X=x) car is totaled car is not totaled 2. Use the probability distribution table to find the following: E[X]=μX=E[X]=μX= dollars. (Round the answer to 1 decimal place.) SD[X]=σX=SD[X]=σX= dollars. (Round the answer to 1 decimal place.)

A sociologist randomly selects single adults for different groups of three, and the random variable x is the number in the group who say that the most fun way to flirt is in person. Determine whether a probability distribution is given. If a probability distribution is given, find its mean and standard deviation. If a probability distribution is not given, identify the requirements that are not satisfied, P(x) O 0.086 0.326 0.414 0.174 Does the table show a probability distribution? Select all that apply. O A. Yes, the table shows a probability distribution. O B. No, the sum of all the probabilities is not equal to 1. O C. No, the random variable x's number values are not associated with probabilities. O D. No, the random variable x is categorical instead of numerical. O E. No, not every probability is between 0 and 1 inclusive.
