Examine the following probability distribution: X 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 P(x) 0.01 0.05 0.16 0.20 0.30 0.13 0.05 0.04 0.01 0.05 (A) Calculate the expected value and standard deviation for this random variable (2 decimal places) Answer : E(X) = (B) Denote the expected value as u. Calculate µ – o and µ + o. Answer: μ -σ=. and u + o = (C) Determine the proportion of the distribution that iscontained within the interval (u - o, µ + o) Answer The proportion is % within this interval
