Let Y = {10, if,ifxisisodd
even
, Find P(Y = y)
7. Suppose that a balanced die is rolled once. If X is the number that shows up, find the expected
value of g(x) = 3x+2.
8. Suppose that we roll a pair of fair dice, so each of the 36 possible outcomes is equally likely.
Let A denotes the event that the first die lands on 3, let B be the sum of the dice is 8 and let C be
the event that the sum of the dice is 7.
b. What is the probability that die shows on A given that the die shows on c?
