Josh and Adelina are staff members for a political candidate. They are considering hiring callers who will call
voters and ask for donations.
Josh and Adelina define X as the amount donated by a given voter they call. Based on data from their volunteer
callers, the expected value of X is E(X) = $18.07.
Adelina says, "For every 100 voters we call, we can expect to bring in about $1,807 in total donations."
Josh says, "If we call a very large number of voters, the average donation will be close to $18.07."
Whose statement is correct based on the expected value?

Respuesta :

According to the given expected value, it is found that Josh's statement is correct.

  • The interpretation of the expected value is that over a large number of trials, the average value will be close to the expected value.

In this problem, the expected amount donated by a given voter they call is $18.07.

  • Hence, considering a very large number of voters called, the average amounts of their donations will be close to $18.07, hence, Josh's statement is correct.
  • 100 voters is not a large amount, hence the expected value should vary around $18.07, and we can't say that Adelina's statement is correct.
