Respuesta :

In order to find the expected value of x, we just need to divide the total number of employees by the total number of companies:

[tex]\begin{gathered} E(x)=\frac{273\cdot1+350\cdot4+357\cdot1+873\cdot4}{10} \\ E(x)=\frac{5522}{10} \\ E(x)=552.2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So the expected value of x is 552.2.
