  3. x P(x) 0 0.243Determine if the 1 0.167following represents 2 0.213a probability distribution: 3 0.149 4 0.232 5 0.164 • Yes • No

  4. x P(x) 0 0.1296Find the mean of the 1 0.3456following probability 2 0.3456distribution: 3 0.1536 4 0.0256 • 1.5 • 1.7 • 1.6 • 2.0

  5. A contractor is considering a sale that promises a profit of $38,000 with a probability of 0.7 or a loss (due to bad weather, strikes and such) of $16,000 with a probability of 0.3. What is the expected profit? • $26,600 • $22,000 • $37,800 • $21,800
