Determine whether the following arguments are valid using the given forms of valid arguments and fallacies.
- (a) If you do well in hospitality management, you’ll get a job at a great resort.
- (b) If you work hard, you will be a success.
- (c) Jon is either really cheap, or flat broke. I got a look at his checking account statement and he’s not broke, so he must just be cheap.
- (d) If my lab rats don’t die, I’ll get a passing lab grade. Since I passed bio lab, that means the rats didn’t die.

Consider a discrete random variable representing the number of patients visiting a clinic each day. The probabilities for the number of visits are as follows: 0 visits: P(0) = 0.2 1 visit: P(1) = 0.3 2 visits: P(2) = 0.5 Using this information, calculate the expected value (mean) of the number of patient visits per day. Show all your workings clearly. Rubric to follow Definition of Random variables ( clearly and accurately differentiate between discrete and continuous random variables with appropriate examples for each) Identification of discrete random variable (correctly identifies "number of patient visits" as a discrete random variable and explains reasoning clearly.)
