Correct answer: 75
- Given probability distribution
The random variable takes values with probabilities
- Use validity of probabilities
For a probability distribution, each probability must be non-negative.
So,
Combining all conditions,
Hence, the minimum possible value of is
- Find the mean
So,
Simplify:
Now substitute :
E(X)=\frac{6+3\left(-\frac13\right)}{4}=rac{6-1}{4}=rac54.- Compute sixty times the mean
Therefore,
