Megan has purchased the insurance policy from an insurance company to cover the value of hers new car in case if it gets totaled for the price of $1500 per year. Megan's car worth $20000 and the probability of her totaling the car during the length of the policy is estimated to be 0.4%. Let XX be the insurance company's profit. Answer the following questions: 1. Create the probability distribution table for XX : XX outcome profit xx ,$ P(X=x)P(X=x) car is totaled car is not totaled 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.)

(Round to three decimal places as needed.) O A. If a very large number of households were sampled, on average, there would be E(x) = boys. O B. If a very large number of two-child households were sampled, on average, there would be E(x) = boys. of getting a family with a boy. %3D O C. If a very large number of two-child households were sampled, there would be a probability of E(x) = O D. In the sample of 44,000 households, each household had E(x) = boys.
