Full-screen Snip Sea pier construction. With reference to the data given in above,acontractor is assigned to work on an extension to the sea pier. The contractor finds that the profits Y of the job are directly decreased by the number of days per month X of high- amplitude waves acting on the sea front. It is estimated that Y = 10,000(10 – X). Determine the pmf of Y and the mean and variance of Y. |
