Question

Transcribed Image Text:You are playing a card came, and the probability that you will win a game is p = 0.53.
If you play the game 450 times, what is the most likely number of wins?
(Round answer to one decimal place.)
Let X represent the number of games (out of 450) that you win. Find the standard deviation for the
probability distribution of X.
(Round answer to two decimal places.)
O =
The range rule of thumb specifies that the minimum usual value for a random variable is u-20 and the
maximum usual value is u+2o. You already found u and o for the random variable X.
Use the range rule of thumb to find the usual range of X values. Enter answer as an interval using square-
brackets and only whole numbers.
