Consider the experiment of rolling a pair of dice. Suppose that we are interested in the sum of the face values showing on the dice. Show steps in Excel. d What is the probability of obtaining a value of 9 or greater? e. Because each roll has six possible even values (2, 4, 6, 8. 10, 12) and only five possible odd values (3, 5,7,9,11), the dice should show even values more often that odd values. Do you agree with this statement? Explain. f. What method did you use to assign the probabilities requested?
