Suppose that there are N different types of stickers. Once you collect all the stickers, you can claim a reward of 1 million dollar. Each time you get a cheetos, a compliem- ntary sticker is given. It is a gimmick to sell more cheetos. The probablity to get a sticker is equally likely as other. Let X be the number of cheetos you will need to buy before having collected all the sticker and hence claim a reward of 1 million dollar.

Simplified stock market. Suppose there are three kinds of days: GOOD, GREAT, and ROTTEN. The following table gives the frequency of each of these types of days and the effect on the price of a certain stock on that day. Type of day Frequency Change in stock value GOOD 60% 10% +2 +5 GREAT -4 ROTTEN 30% The type of a given day is independent of the type of any other day. Let X be the random variable giving the change in value of the stock after 1 day. Please answer: a. What is the expected change in the stock price? (That is, find E(X).) b. Calculate Var(X). NOTE: Give your answer to two decimal places (i.e., round to the nearest hundredths)
