5-15.
Consider the random experiment of rolling a pair of tetrahedron dice (whose number of dots
are 1 to 4). If X denotes the sum of the numbers in the two dice,
5-7. What are the possible values of X?

Solution:
The possible outcome of a rolled pair of tetrahedron dice are:

11=2 21=3 31=4 41=5

12=3 22=4 32=5 42=6
13=4 23=5 33=6 43=7
14=5 24=6 34=7 44=8

Thus,
X ={2,3,4,5,6,7,8}

Answer: d.

8-11. What is the probability distribution for the random variable X?

Solution:
X ={2,3,4,5,6,7,8}

X 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

P(X) 1/16 2/16 3/16 4/16 3/16 2/16 1/16

P(X=2) = 1/16
P(X=3) = 2/16
P(X=4) = 3/16
P(X=5) = 4/16
P(X=6) = 3/16
P(X=7) = 2/16
P(X=8) = 1/16

Answer: a.

12-15. What is (X >4)?

P(X >4) = P(X=5)+P(X=6)+P(X=7)+P(X=8)

P(X >4) = 4/16+3/16+2/16+1/16
P(X >4) = 10/16 or ⅝

Therefore, the probability that the random variable X

is more than 4 is 10/16 or ⅝.

1-15. A train contains girls and boys. If three persons are taken from the train one after the
other and the random variable G represents the number of girls,

1-3. What is the probability distribution?

SOLUTION:
The possible outcomes:

BBB GBB

BBG GBG

BGB GGB

BGG GGG

The number of girls in each outcome:

BBB = 0 GBB = 1

BBG = 1 GBG = 2

BGB = 1 GGB = 2

BGG = 2 GGG = 3

The possible values of random variable G which represents the number of girls are 0,
1, 2, and 3.
X = {0, 1, 2, 3}
Thus the probability distribution of the random G variable would be:

G P(G)

0 1/8

1 3/8

2 3/8

3 1/8
ANSWER: b.
4-6. What is the mean of the probability distribution?
SOLUTION:

G P(G) G.P(G)

0 1/8 0

1 3/8 3/8

2 3/8 6/8

3 1/8 3/8
TOTAL: 12/8 or 1.5

Thus, E(X) = Σ(X ⋅ P(X)) = 1.5. The mean or the expected value of the probability
distribution is 1.5.
ANSWER: c.

7-9. What is the variance of the probability distribution?

SOLUTION:

G P(G) G2 G2. P(G)

0 1/8 0 0

1 3/8 1 3/8

2 3/8 4 12/8

3 1/8 9 9/8
Total: 24/8 or 3

σ = ∑[M2∙ P(M)] − μ
σ2 = 3 – 1.52
σ2 = 3 – 2.25
σ2 = 0.75

Thus, σ2 = 0.75. The variance of the probability distribution is 0.75.

ANSWER: a.

10-12. What is the standard deviation of the probability distribution?

SOLUTION:
σ = √∑[M2 ∙ P(M)] − μ2
σ = √0.75
σ = 0.87
Thus, σ = 0.87. The standard deviation of the probability distribution is 0.87
Answer: d. 0.87
13-15. In two-three sentences, interpret the mean and the variance of the given probability
distribution.
The possible values of random variable G which represents the number of girls are 0,
1, 2, and 3. X = {0, 1, 2, 3}. On average, the number of girls that are taken out of the train is
1.5. The variance of the probability of the distribution is 0.75. And since the value of the
variance is lower, the data points are closer to the mean.

1-3. What is the normal curve of the data?

Solution:

μ = 12
𝛔=2

μ-𝛔= 12-2= 10
μ-2𝛔= 12-(2)2= 8
μ-3𝛔= 12-(3)2= 6

μ+𝛔= 12+2= 14
μ+2𝛔= 12+(2)2= 16
μ+3𝛔= 12+(3)2= 18

6,8,10,14,16,18
ANSWER: d.

4-6. What is the Z value that corresponds to the score X= 16?

Solution:

μ = 12 𝛔 = 2 X= 16

Z = X-μ /𝛔
Z = 16-12/2
Z = 4/2
Z=2

Thus, the raw score X = 16 corresponds to a Z value of Z = 2.

ANSWER: a.

7-10. What is P(X ≤ 16)?

Solution:

Z = X-μ /𝛔
Z = 16-12/2
Z = 4/2
Z=2

P(Z ≤ k) = F(k)
P(Z ≤ 2) = 0.97725 or 97.72%
