An investor plans to put $50,000 in one of four investments. The return on each
investment depends on whether next year's economy is strong or weak. The
following table summarizes the possible payoffs, in dollars, for the four
investments.
Certificate

Office
complex
Land
speculation
Technical

Let V, W, X, and Y denote the payoffs for the certificate of deposit,
office complex, land speculation, and technical school, respectively.
Then V, W, X, and Y are random variables. Assume that next year's
economy has a 30% chance of being strong and a 70% chance of being
weak.

Y.
What is the probability distribution for V?
