(1) What is the expected number of admissions for the fall semester? (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)
Expected number of admissions
(2) Compute the varianceand the standard deviationof the number of admissions. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Variance
Standard deviation
1) Expected number of admissions = E(x) = x * p(x) = 1070(0.3) …
The Solution provides the expected number of admissions, Variance and Standard deviation.
