When parking a car in a downtown parking lot, drivers pay according to the number of hours or fraction thereof. The probability distribution of the number of hours cars are parked has been estimated as follows: X | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 P(X) | 0.208 | 0.111 | 0.122 | 0.087 | 0.058 | 0.036 | 0.032 | 0.346 A. Mean = 4.642 B. Standard Deviation = 2.837 The cost of parking is 3.5 dollars per hour. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of the amount of revenue each car generates. A. Mean = B. Standard Deviation =

7.32 When parking a car in a downtown parking lot, drivers pay according to the number of hours or parts thereof. The probability distribution of the number of hours cars are parked has been estimated as follows. x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 P(x) .24 .18 .13 .10 .07 .04 .04 .20 Find the mean and standard deviation of the number of hours cars are parked in the lot. 7.33 Refer to Exercise 7.32. The cost of parking is $2.50 per hour. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of the amount of revenue each car generates.
