Please explain how to solve on a calculator.
In a game of craps, you roll two fair dice. Whether you win or lose depends on the sum of the numbers occurring on the tops of the dice. Let x be the random variable that represents the sum of the numbers on the tops of the dice. What values can x take on? (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.) What is the probability distribution of these x values (that is, what is the probability that x = 2, 3, etc.)? (Enter the probabilities in ascending order of the x values. Round your answers to three decimal places.)Explanation / Answer
a) sum can take values 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12
b)
x P(x) 2 0.028 3 0.056 4 0.083 5 0.111 6 0.139 7 0.167 8 0.139 9 0.111 10 0.083 11 0.056 12 0.028
