A local charity holds a carnival to raise money. In one activity, participants make a $3 donation for a chance to spin a wheel that has 10 spaces marked with the values 0, 1, 2, 5, and 10. The participant wins the dollar amount marked on the space on which the wheel stops. Let X be the value of a random spin. The distribution of X is given in the table. What is the mean?

Answer:The  median of the distribution is (first option)

1

Step-by-step explanation:

The values on the given table are presented as follows;

Value of spin: 0,1,2,5,10

Probability: 0.4,0.2,0.2,0.1,0.1


To find the median, we calculate the cumulative probabilities to find the value of the spin art which the cumulative probability is 0.5 as follows;

Cumulative probability, starting from the left, is therefore;

Probability for spin of 0, 0.4 + Probability for spin of 1, 0.2 = 0.6
Therefore, given that the probability of 0.5 occurs within the Value of Spin 1, the median of the probability distribution is 1
