Suppose, ‘rolling a regular 6 sided die and a biased 4 sided die together’ is called a TRIAL. The biased die has 1, 2, 2 and 4 labeled on its four faces. X is an RV defined as the sum of the numbers that appear on top of the dice after one trial. (a) Find the probability distribution of X. (Different Values of X and their corresponding probabilities) (b) Find the number of TRIALs to expect a total = 46. (c) What is the expected number of TRIALs for 7>=x>=5 where x is a real number

The acceptable level for insect filth in a certain food item is 2 insect fragments (larvae, eggs, body parts, and so on) per 10 grams. A simple random sample of 40 ten-gram portions of the food item is obtained and results in a sample mean of x=2.3 insect fragments per ten-gram portion. What is the probability a simple random sample of 40 ten-gram portions of the food item results in a mean of at least 2.3 P(x≥2.3)= (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
