(26-35). The number of items sold per day at a retail store, with its corresponding probabilities, is
shown in the table. Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the probability distribution.
(10 pts)

No. of items sold X 19 20 21 22 23

Probability, P(Y) 0.20 0.20 0.30 0.20 0.10

Solution:

µ=19(0.20)+20(0.20)+21(0.30)+22(0.20)+23(0.10)

µ=20.8
