Answer:

2.45

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Probability distribution shows us sample space(number of calls) and their probabilities

Number of calls. Probability

0. 0.10

1. 0.15

2. 0.30

3. 0.20

4. 0.15

5. 0.19

2. We are to find expected number of calls

(0x0.1) + (1x0.15) + (2x0.30) + (3x0.20) + (4x0.15) + (5x0.10)

E(X) = 0 +0.15 + 0.6 + 0.6 + 0.6 + 0.5

= 2.45

The expected number of Service calls per day is 2.45

Thank you!
