A company gives each worker a cash bonus every Friday, randomly giving a worker an amount with these probabilities: $10 - 0.75, $50 - 0.25. Over many weeks, what is a worker's expected weekly bonus?

Sagot :

The worker's expected weekly bonus is $30.0

How to determine the worker's expected weekly bonus?

The amounts and the probabilities are given as:

x    $10       $50

P(x)  0.75    0.25

The worker's expected weekly bonus is calculated as:

[tex]E(x) = \sum x * P(x)[/tex]

So, we have:

E(x) = $10 * 0.75 + $50 * 0.25

Evaluate the product

E(x) = $17.5 + $12.5

Evaluate the sum

E(x) = $30.0

Hence, the worker's expected weekly bonus is $30.0
