Experience shows that a ski lodge will be full (153 guests) if there is a heavy snow fall while only partially full (62 guests) with a light snow fall. What is the expected number of guests if the probability for a heavy snow fall is .40

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of guests for lodge to be full = 153

During heavy snow fall, the lodge will be full.

The expected number of guests during heavy snow fall = 153

During partial snow fall, the expected number of guests = 62

The probability of heavy snowfall = 0.4

The probability of partial snow fall = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

The expected number of guests = [(0.4) (153)] + [(0.6) (62)]

= 61.2 + 37.2

 =  98.4

step-by-step explanation:

d would equal 12
