PA BRAINLIEST PO!!
1. To find the probability that the number of empanadas sold is more than 5, we need to add up the probabilities of all the outcomes where E is greater than 5:P(E > 5) = P(E = 6) + P(E = 7) + P(E = 8) + P(E = 9) + P(E = 10)= 0.06 + 0.05 + 0.04 + 0.025 + 0.015= 0.195Therefore, the probability that the number of empanadas sold is more than 5 is 0.195.
2.To find the probability that the number of empanadas sold is at most 8, we need to add up the probabilities of all the outcomes where E is less than or equal to 8:P(E ≤ 8) = P(E = 0) + P(E = 1) + P(E = 2) + P(E = 3) + P(E = 4) + P(E = 5) + P(E = 6) + P(E = 7) + P(E = 8)= 0.1 + 0.15 + 0.25 + 0.14 + 0.09 + 0.08 + 0.06 + 0.05 + 0.04= 0.86Therefore, the probability that the number of empanadas sold is at most 8 is 0.86.
3.To find the probability that the number of empanadas sold was greater than 2 but less than 5, we need to add up the probabilities of all the outcomes where E is greater than 2 and less than 5:P(2 < E < 5) = P(E = 3) + P(E = 4)= 0.14 + 0.09= 0.23Therefore, the probability that the number of empanadas sold was greater than 2 but less than 5 is 0.23.
