Answer:
μ ≈ 2.33
σ ≈ 1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Each person has equal probability of ⅓.
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}X&P(X)\\1&\frac{1}{3}\\2&\frac{1}{3}\\4&\frac{1}{3}\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7DX%26P%28X%29%5C%5C1%26%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%5C%5C2%26%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%5C%5C4%26%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
The mean is the expected value:
μ = E(X) = ∑ X P(X)
μ = (1) (⅓) + (2) (⅓) + (4) (⅓)
μ = ⁷/₃
The standard deviation is:
σ² = ∑ (X−μ)² P(X)
σ² = (1 − ⁷/₃)² (⅓) + (2 − ⁷/₃)² (⅓) + (4 − ⁷/₃)² (⅓)
σ² = ¹⁴/₉
σ ≈ 1.25
2.8 or if rounded to the nearest tenth so 2.8√8

Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the box is the product of its three dimensions, length, width, and height. The product of a number of "inches" and a "pure number" (3 has no units given) will not be "cubic inches."
_____
As it happens, the cube-shaped box with a volume of 27 cubic inches will have a height of 3 <em>inches</em> and a side area of 9 <em>square inches</em>. The edge length of the cube is 3 inches, not 9.
