An automobile collision insurance policy reimburses repair costs subject to the deductible of 250 per accident. In the event of accident, repair costs can be modeled by the uniform random variable on interval (0,1500).

(a). Find out the expected value of the claim payment per loss random variable.

(b). Find out the expected value of the claim payment per payment random variable.

(c). Find out the expected value of the claim payment per payment random variable if the deductible is eliminated.
