I only need help with second page ... questions 4 5 6

In this activity, we investigate the sampling distribution of the sample mean, X
1. Imagine that you roll a single, fair, six-sided die once. Define the random
variable X, to be the number of dots (pips) on the upward face. Complete the
probability distribution table for X.

2. Sketch the probability histogram for x below. Let the x-axis be the OUTCOME
and let the y-axis be the PROBABILITY.
3. Determine the mean and standard deviation for X. As a reminder, you determine
the mean of a discrete probability distribution using u =ExP(x) and the
standard deviation is found most simply using the formula
o = EX²P(x)- µ² (see page 322).

4. Now imagine that you roll two dice, one red and one green. What are the
possible sample means that you could have? Complete the following table,
entering the sample mean number of pips for each of the 36 possible outcomes.
