Neveah has purchased the life insurance policy for her iguana for the price of $100 per year and Neveah will receive $4000 in case if her iguana passes away. The insurance company estimated the probability of her iguana passing away during the length of the policy to be 0.1%. Let X be the insurance company's profit. Answer the following questions: 1. Create the probability distribution table for X: X outcome iguana passes away profitæ,$| P(X= x) -4000 X 0.001 4000 X 0.999 iguana survives 2. Use the probability distribution table to find the following: a. E[X] = μx 3992 dollars. (Round the answer to 1 decimal place.) b. SD[X]=ox 252.9 x dollars. (Round the answer to 1 decimal place.)

Neveah has purchased the life insurance policy for her iguana for the price of $100 per year and Neveah
will receive $4000 in case if her iguana passes away. The insurance company estimated the probability of
her iguana passing away during the length of the policy to be 0.1%. Let X be the insurance company's
profit. Answer the following questions:
1. Create the probability distribution table for X:
X
outcome
iguana passes away
=
profit ,$ P(X= x)
-4000 X
iguana survives
2. Use the probability distribution table to find the following:
0.001
4000 X 0.999
a. E[X] = μx
3992 dollars. (Round the answer to 1 decimal place.)
b. SD[X]=ox 252.9 x dollars. (Round the answer to 1 decimal place.)
