I roll one die and my friend rolls another die. What is the probability that at least one of us gets an even number?

Let R and S be two independent and identically distributed random variables. E(R) = E(S) = 4. V(R) = V(S) = 3. Let T = R – S. What is V(T)?

My friend and I are playing a gambling game in which we each roll a die. We then compare the numbers on the two dice to determine the outcome. If my roll is larger, I win $1 and my friend loses $1. If her roll is larger, I lose $1 and she wins $1. And if our two rolls are equal, we both don’t win or lose any money. (a) Write your answers as simplified fractions: What is the chance...

Alice rolls a six faced fair die twice, and she obtains two numbers that we denote with X and Y , respectively. Fair die means that, in each roll, the six outcomes are equally likely. Let A be the event that X = 4, B be the event that X + Y = 6, and C be the event that Y = 5. (a) Write the sample space S for this experiment. (b) Are A and B independent? (c) Are...

You are playing another dice game where you roll just one die--this time, you lose a point if you roll a 1. You are going to roll the die 60 times. Use that information to answer the remaining questions. A. What are the values of p and q? (Hint: notice this is binomial data, where p is the probability of losing a point and q is the probability of not losing a point.) p =    and q = B....
