Explanation / Answer

4)

P( x < 3 ) = 0.001 + 0.014 + 0.073 + 0.206 = 0.294

MEAN = 0.001 * 0 + 0.014 * 1 + 0.073*2 + 0.206*3 + 0.328*4 + 0.279*5 + 0.099*6

MEAN = 4.079

VAR = 0.001 * 0 ^2+ 0.014 * 1^2 + 0.073* 2^2 + 0.206*3^2 + 0.328*4^2 + 0.279*5^2 + 0.099*6^2

VAR = 0.014 + 0.292 + 1.854 + 5.248 + 6.975 + 3.564

VAR = 17.947 - 4.079^2 = 1.308759

SD = SQRT ( 1.308759 ) = 1.144
