Provide an appropriate response. A lab orders a shipment of 100 rats a week, 52 weeks a year, from a rat supplier for experiments that the lab conducts. Prices for each weekly shipment of rats follow the distribution below: How much should the lab budget for next year’s rat orders assuming this distribution does not change. (Hint: find the expected price.)
