Question

The following table contains the probability distribution for the number of traffic accidents daily in a small town. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (c) below. Refer to chart below. 

Number of accidents daily (X)               P(X=xi)

0                                                              0.30

1                                                              0.35

2                                                              0.17

3                                                               0.07  

4                                                              0.05

5                                                              0.04

6                                                               0.02

A.) Compute number of accidents a day

B.) Complete standard deviation 

C.) What is the probability that there will be at least 2 accidents on a given​ day?
