9. Bicycle Sales The probability that a bicycle shop sells 0, 1, 2, or 3 bicycles in a week is 3/8, 1/4, 1/4, and 1/8, respectively. Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation for the distribution. $\mu = E(X) = \sum [X \* P(X)]$ $\sigma^2 = E(X^2) - \mu^2 = \sum [X^2 \* P(X)] - \mu^2$ $\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma^2}$ X P(X) X * P(X) X$^2$ * P(X) Mean or expected value: 0 1 2 3 $\mu = E(X) = \sum[ X \* P(X)] = $ Variance: $E(X^2) = \sum[ X^2 \* P(X)] = $ $\sigma^2 = E(X^2) - \mu^2 = $ Standard deviation: $\sigma = $
