Chapter 4.1 Mean of a Random Variable Mean of a Random Variable If two coins are tossed 16 times and X is the number of heads that occur per toss, then the values of X can be 0, 1, and 2. Suppose that the experiment yields no heads, one head, and two heads a total of 4, 7, and 5 times, respectively. The average number of heads per toss of the two coins is then (0)(4) (1)(7) (2)(5) 1.06 16 + + = The value means that on average we can expect that by each toss the head will occur for 1.06 times and no head for 0.94 times. 1.06 is called an expected value, a term used to describe the long- term average outcome of a given scenario.

Chapter 4.1 Mean of a Random Variable Mean of a Random Variable Let X be a random variable with probability distribution f(x). The mean or expected value of X is = if X is discrete, and = ( ) E X ( ) xf x x = = ( ) E X ( ) xf x dx if X is continuous. President University Erwin Sitompul PSA 4/6
Chapter 4.1 Mean of a Random Variable Mean of a Random Variable A lot containing 7 components is sampled by a quality inspector, the lot contains 4 good components and 3 defective components. A sample of 3 is taken by the inspector. Find the expected value of the number of good components in this sample Let X represent the number of good components in the sample. The probability distribution of X is C C f x x C 1 (0) , 35 35 35 = = 4 3 3 ( ) , 0,1,2,3 x x for 7 3 12 18 4 = = = = (1) , (2) , (3) f f f f 35 1 35 12 35 18 35 4 12 7 = = + + + = = = (0) (1) (2) (3) ( ) E X ( ) 1.714 xf x 35 x Thus, if 3 components are selected at random over and over again from a lot of 4 good components and 3 defective components, one will pick on average 1.7 good components and, accordingly, 1.3 bad components.

Chapter 4.1 Mean of a Random Variable Mean of a Random Variable In a gambling game a man is paid $5 if he gets all heads or all tails when three coins are tossed, and he will pay out $3 if either one or two heads show.

Chapter 4.1 Mean of a Random Variable Mean of a Random Variable A salesperson has two appointments on a given day. He believes that he has 70% chance to make the deal at the first appointment, from which he can earn $1000 commission if successful. On the other hand, he thinks he only has a 40% chance to make the deal at the second appointment, which will give him $1500 if successful. What is his expected commission based on his own probability belief? Assume that the appointment results are independent of each other. Let X be the commission the salesperson will earn. Due to independence, the probabilities can be calculated as ($0) (1 0.7)(1 0.4) 0.18 f = = ($1000) (0.7)(1 0.4) 0.42 f = = = = = = ($1500) (1 0.7)(0.4) 0.12 f ($2500) (0.7)(0.4) 0.28 f = = ( ) E X ( ) xf x x = ($0)(0.18) ($1000)(0.42) ($1500)(0.12) ($2500)(0.28) + + + = $1300 President University Erwin Sitompul PSA 4/9
