(b) An otherwise fair six-sided die has been tampered with in an attempt to
cheat at a dice game. The effect is that the 1 and 6 faces have a
different probability of occurring than the 2, 3, 4 and 5 faces.
Let θ be the probability of obtaining a 1 on this biased die. Then the
outcomes of rolling the biased die have the following probability mass
function.

(i) By consideration of the p.m.f. in Table 1, explain why it is
necessary for θ to be such that 0 < θ < 1/2. [2]
(ii) The value of θ is unknown. Data from which to estimate the value
of θ were obtained by rolling the biased die 1000 times. The result
of this experiment is shown in Table 2.

Frequency 205 154 141 165 145 190
