Answer:

A. 32.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Automobile owner has 40% chance for one accident in a year and 60% of zero accident in a year.

Let x is the loss of accident and y is the payment by insurer.

Y = 0 if X < 40,

x - 40 if 40 < x < 130

130 if x [tex]\geq[/tex] 170

Then, Var [y] = E y^2

Var [y] = 1052.16

E = 32.437.
