Answer:

(e) 39

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value (or the average number) of impulse purchases per day is given by the probability of an impulse purchase being made (6%) multiplied by the daily number of customers (650):

[tex]E(X) =P(X)* n\\E(X) = 0.06*650\\E(X) = 39[/tex]

The average number of impulse purchases is 39 per day.
