 If X is defined as the number of pasta packets found to be defective after
testing 10 packets, then X would follow a binomial distribution with n = 10 and
p = 0.05. Now, you want to find the expected value, which would be equal to
EV(X) = 0*P(X=0) + 1*P(X=1) + 2*P(X=2) + 3*P(X=3) + 4*P(X=4) + 5*P(X=5) +
6*P(X=6) + 7*P(X=7) + 8*P(X=8) + 9*P(X=9) + 10*P(X=10). Using a spreadsheet
to calculate the individual probabilities, you can find that the expected value
EV(X) = 0.5
