Let X1,X2 be two independent rolls of a standard 6-sided die, and let Y = X1+X2.

a) Determine the distribution of Y explicitly. Give your answer in table format.

b) Calculate E(Y ) using the distribution you found in part a).

c) Explain your answer to part b) in terms of E(X1) and E(X2).

That's full problem, Thank you!!
