7. Your Internet commerce company, ShadySlim.com, sells beauty products on-line. Recent research shows the number of orders in one month per million residents in 100 cities around the US.

(a) (4 points) If X is the number of orders per million residents in a randomly chosen city, construct the probability distribution for X in tabular form, and hence compute the expected value of X, and standard deviation (Round answers to 4 decimal places.)

=
=

(b) (2 points) What range of orders per million residents does the empirical rule predict from approximately 68% of all cities? (Give answers accurate to 1 decimal place.)

Between and orders per million residents

(c) Referring to the frequency distribution, the actual percentage of cities from which you obtain between 2.4 and 7.6 orders per million residents is Select one less than 80% at most 90% more than 90% but at most 95% more than 95% 100% more than 100% not at all .
