Question 1127317: The natural remedy echinacea is reputed to boost the immune system, which will reduce flu and colds. A 6-month study was undertaken to determine whether the remedy works. From this study, the following probability distribution of the number of respiratory infections per year (X) for echinacea users was produced:
X 0 1 2 3 4
P(X) 0.35 0.32 0.2 0.071 0.059
