Answer #1

Solution :

x P(x) x * P(x) x2 * P(x)
0 0.058 0 0
1 0.124 0.124 0.124
2 0.164 0.328 0.656
3 0.177 0.531 1.593
4 0.213 0.852 3.408
5 0.129 0.645 3.225
6 0.083 0.498 2.988
7 0.052 0.364 2.548

(a)

Mean = = X * P(X) = 0.364

(b)

Variance = 2

= X 2 * P(X) - 2

= 2.548 - 0.3642

= 3.373036

(c)

standard deviation

= variance

= 3.373036

= 1.836583
