A marketing survey compiled data on the number of cars in households.  If X = the number of cars in a randomly selected household, and we omit the rare cases of more than 5 cars, then X has the following probability distribution: 

X           0          1          2          3           4           5  

P(X)   0.24    0.37    0.20    0.11    0.05     0.03

What is the probability that a randomly chosen household has at least two cars?

In a certain community, 30% of households have 1 child, 43% have 2 children, and 27% have 3 children. If a household is selected at random, what is the expected number of children in that household? HINT: A Probability table may be helpful.
