Question

For a particular clothing store, a marketing firm finds that 16% of $10-off coupons delivered by mail are redeemed. Suppose six customers are randomly selected and are mailed $10-off coupons. What is the expected number of coupons that will be redeemed?

Answer 1

Answer:

The expected number of coupon  is $E(X) = 1.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The probability that a $10 coupons delivered by mail will be redeemed is p = 0.16

  The sample size is  n =  10

Generally the expected number of coupons that will be redeemed is mathematically represented as

         $E(X) = np$

=>       $E(X) = 10 * 0.16$

=>       $E(X) = 1.6$
