Total outcomes when rolling a pair of dice = 36
Total ways to get sum 7= 6
P(7) = 6/36 = 1/6
So, P(I = 1) = 1/6
P(I = 0) = 1 - 1/6 = 5/6
I | 0 | 1 | Total |
P | 5/6 | 1/6 | 1 |
I*P | 0 | 1/6 | 1/6 |
I^2 *P | 0 | 1/6 | 1/6 |
Hence 5/36 is the Variance of I.
Please comment if any doubt. Thank you.
roll a pair of fair dice. find the expected sum, given that at least one of dice is a four.
5. A pair of dice is rolled until a sum of either 5 or 7 appears. Find the probability that a 5 occurs first. (Hint: Let Fn denote the event that a 5 occurs on the nth roll and no 5 or 7 occurs on the first n 1 rolls. Compute P(F) and argue that PF) is the desired probability.)

(2) If we roll a pair dice, what is the probability that: (a) the sum is 8? (b) both are 3 providing that one of them is 3?
Question 5: Roll two fair dice and let X be the sum of the two numbers faced up. a. Find the probability distribution of X . b. What is the expected value of X? c. What is the variance of X ?
Exercise 4.8. Dice. You roll two dice. Let A belthe event that the sum of the dice is an even number. Let B be the event that the two results are different. If B has occurred, what is the probability A has also occurred?
Please answer the question clearly 6. Suppose that we roll a pair of balanced dice. Let X be the number of dice that show 1 and Y be the number of dice that show either 4, 5, or 6. (a) Draw a diagram like Figure 3.1 on page 62 showing the values of the pair (X, Y) associated with each of the 36 equally likely points of the sample space. (b) Construct a table showing the values of the joint...
Suppose you roll a pair of fair 6-sided dice and place a bet on the sum. Which number would you select? (justify!)
Roll 10 dice. Find probability sum of dice is 42. (dice are 6-sided. Min roll = 10. Max roll = 120.) (number of possible rolls = 6^10 = 60466176) = s^n number of favorable rolls = number of ways dice add to 42 [(number of favorable rolls)/(number of possible rolls)] = [Probability sum is 42] You must find number of favorable rolls. Given number of dice(n), sides(s), and sum of roll (r) as n = 10, s = 6, and...
