A consumer organization inspecting new cars found that many had appearance defects (dents, scratches, paint chips, etc.). While none had more than three of these defects, 6% had three, 17% had two, and 25% had one defect. Find the expected number of appearance defects in a new car and the standard deviation. Compute the expected value of the number of appearance defects. E(appearance defects) =| (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
