Question 1 (options given)

Consider an experiment that involves rolling a faireight-sideddie once. LetXdenote the number rolled when rolling the die (i.e. the number on the upwards facing side of the die after it is rolled).How many possible outcomes are there? That is, how many different observed values forXcan eventuate from this experiment?

1) 8

2) 6

3) 9

4) 7

5) 2

Question 2 (option given)

Consider an experiment that involves rolling a fairfive-sideddie once and assume that the outcomes in the experiment are all equally likely to occur. What is the probability associated with each outcome occurring?

1) 1/2

2) 1/5

3) 1/4

4) 1/7

5) 1/6

Question 3 (options given )

Consider an experiment that involves rolling a fairnine-sideddie once and assume that the outcomes in the experiment are all equally likely to occur.LetAdenote the event that we will observe a number less than 5 when rolling a fairnine-sideddie. What is the probability of eventA occurring?

1) 5/7

2) 2/3

3) 1/2

4) 4/9

5) 5/9

Question 4 (options given)

Consider an experiment that involves rolling a faireight-sideddie once and assume that the outcomes in the experiment are all equally likely to occur.LetBdenote the event that we will observe a number greater than or equal to 5 when rolling a faireight-sideddie. What is the probability of eventB occurring?

1) 5/6

2) 3/8

3) 1/2

4) 5/8

5) 1/3
