Autumn has purchased the insurance policy from an insurance company to cover the value of hers house in case if it gets destroyed due to a fire for the price of $1600 per year. Autumn's house is worth $370000 and the probability that fire destroys the house during the length of the policy is estimated to be 0.4%. Let XX be the insurance company's profit. Answer the following questions: 1. Create the probability distribution table for XX : XX outcome profit xx ,$ P(X=x)P(X=x) the house is destroyed the house survived 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.)
