Number of Accidents Daily (X) P(X = xi) 0 0.29 1 0.31 2 0.16 3 0.09 456 0.07 0.05 0.03 a. What is another name for the expected value of a probability distribution? Choose the correct answer. A. The mean B. The shape of the distribution OC. The standard deviation OD. The variability of the distribution b. Compute the mean number of accidents per day. (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) c. What is the probability that there will be at least 2 accidents on a given day? P(x2) = (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.)
