In this experiment, both a fair four-sided die and a fair six-sided die are rolled (these dice both have the numbers most people would expect on them). Let Z be a random variable that represents the absolute value of their difference. For instance, if a 4 and a 1 are rolled, the corresponding value of Z is 3.
(a) What is the pmf of Z?
(b) Draw a graph of the cdf of Z
Let (x,y) represent the result obtained on roling the 2 dice. x is the number rolled on the 4-sided die and y be the number rolled on the 6-sided die.
Total number of possible (x,y) pairs = 4 * 6 = 24 since x can ntake 4 values and y can take 6 values.
The possible values of Z are : {0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5}
a. To find the pmf of Z:
Z = 0, when the result is one of the following: (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4)
Z = 1, when the result is one of the following: (1,2), (2,3), (3,4), (4,5), (2,1), (3,2), (4,3)
Z = 2, when the result is one of the following: (1,3), (2,4), (3,5), (4,6), (3,1), (4,2)
Z = 3, when the result is one of the following: (1,4), (2,5), (3,6), (4,1)
Z = 4, when the result is one of the following: (1,5), (2,6)
Z = 5, when the result is one of the following: (1,6)
Therefore the pmf of Z is given by:
b. To find the cdf of Z:
Let F(z) be the cdf of Z. Then
Therefore,
Graph of cdf of Z:

Roll two fair four-sided dice. Let X and Y be the die scores from the 1st die and the 2nd die, respectively, and define a random variable Z = X − Y (a) Find the pmf of Z. (b) Draw the histogram of the pmf of Z. (c) Find P{Z < 0}. (d) Are the events {Z < 0} and {Z is odd} independent? Why?
Three six-sided fair dice are rolled. The six sides are numbered 1,2,3,4,5,6. Let A be the event that the first die shows an even number, let B be the event that the second die shows an even number, and let C be the event that the third die shows an even number. Express each of the following events in terms of the named events described above: 1) the event that all three dice show even numbers 2) the event that...
If we roll a red 6-sided die and a green 6-sided die (both are fair dice with the numbers 1-6 equally likely to be rolled), what is the probability that we get (i) A 5 on the green die AND a 3 on the red die? (ii) A 5 on the green die OR a 3 on the red die? (iii) A 5 on the green die GIVEN we rolled a 3 on the red die?

Problem 1. Suppose that a fair six-sided die is rolled n times. Let N be the number of 1's rolled, N2 be the number of 2's rolled, etc, so that NN2+Ns-n Since the dice rolls are independent then the random vector < N,, ,Ne > has a multinomial distribution, which you could look up in any probability textbook or on the web. If n 6k is a multiple of 6, let Pa be...
Two fair six-sided dice are rolled. What is the probability that one die shows exactly three more than the other die (for example, rolling a 1 and 4, or rolling a 6 and a 3)
5. A fair six sided die is rolled 10 times. Let X be the number of times the number '6' is rolled. Find P(X2)
(3.) A fair six-sided die is rolled repeatedly. Let R denote the random variable representing the outcome of any particular roll. The following random variables are all discrete-time Markov chains. Specify the transition probabilities for each (as a check, make sure the row sums equal 1) (a) Xn, which represents the largest number obtained by the nth roll. (b) Yn, which represents the number of sixes obtained in n rolls.
Two identical fair 6-sided dice are rolled simultaneously. Each die that shows a number less than or equal to 4 is rolled once again. Let X be the number of dice that show a number less than or equal to 4 on the first roll, and let Y be the total number of dice that show a number greater than 4 at the end. (a) Find the joint PMF of X and Y . (Show your final answer in a...
Suppose a fair six-sided die is rolled and then a card from a standard 52-card deck is chosen in random. What is the probability of the die showing a six and the chosen card being a king?
A) Suppose I roll two fair six-sided dice. What is the probability that I rolled a total of 5? B) Suppose I roll two fair six-sided die and I announce that the sum of the two die is 6 or less. What is the probability that I rolled a total of 5?
