8. Suppose that our company performs DNA analysis for a law enforcement agency. We
currently have one machine that is essential to performing the analysis. When an
analysis is performed, the machine is in use for a third of the day. Thus, each
machine can perform at most three DNA analyses per day. Based on past
experience, the distribution of the random number of analyses needing to be performed
on any given day are as follows:
Jobs 0 1
f(x) .05 .08 .11
2
3
4
5
6
7 or more
✗
.17
A B
.23 .18. .11
C Ꭰ E
.07
F
We are considering purchasing a second machine. Each DNA analysis that the machine
performs earns us a profit of $1200. Let the random variable X represent the amountof
profit earned by the new machine in a given day. (Assume we get jobs 365 days per
year no weekends or holidays.)
(a) What value goes in box A?
(b) What value goes in box B?
(c) What value goes in box C?
(d) What value goes in box D?
(e) What value goes in box E?
(f) What value goes in box F?
(g) What is the daily expected value of the profit earned from this second machine?
(2 DECIMAL PLACES)
(h) What is the yearly expected value of the profit earned from this second machine?
(2 DECIMAL PLACES)
