In Part I we looked at the scenario of rolling a fair six-sided die. Let X be the random variable representing outcome of rolling that die.

Is the random variable discrete or continuous?

Fill in the table to obtain the Probability Distribution:

X = x

P(X =x)

Solution

It is DISCRETE, as the outcomes can only be integers from 1 to 6. It cannot take decimal values in between.

As each outcome is has the same probability, then:
