For the given probability mass function of X, the mean is 3.5 and the standard deviation is 1.708.
- A discrete random variable X's probability mass function (PMF) is a function over its sample space that estimates the likelihood that X will have a given value. f(x)=P[X=x].
- The total of all potential values for a random variable X, weighted by their relative probabilities, is known as the mean (or expected value E[X]) of that variable.
- Mean(μ) = 1(1/6) + 2(1/6) + 3(1/6) + 4(1/6) + 5(1/6) + 6(1/6).
- Mean(μ) = (1+2+3+4+5+6)/6
- Mean(μ) = 21/6
- Mean(μ) = 3.5
- The square root of the variance of a random variable, sample, statistical population, data collection, or probability distribution represents its standard deviation. It is denoted by 'σ'.
- A random variable's variance (or Var[X]) is a measurement of the range of potential values. It is, by definition, the squared expectation of the distance between X and μ. It is denoted by 'σ²'.
- σ² = E[X²]−μ²
- σ² = [1²(1/6) + 2²(1/6) + 3²(1/6) + 4²(1/6) + 5²(1/6) + 6²(1/6)] - (3.5)²
- σ² = [(1² + 2²+ 3² + 4²+ 5²+ 6²)/6] - (3.5)²
- σ² = [(1 + 4 + 9 + 16 + 25 + 36)/6] - (3.5)²
- σ² = (91/6) - (3.5)²
- σ² = 15.167-12.25
- σ² = 2.917
- σ = √2.917
- Standard deviation (σ) = 1.708

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
If two line are perpendicular. The multiply of their slopes are equal to -1.
First line's slope is: -1/2x because if the line equation is form of y=ax+b a is slope.
Let say second line's slope is m
m.-1/2=-1 so m=2
y=ax+b is general form of linear function/equation. (a=slope)
y=2x+b
If this line passes through the point (2,-2),if we write -2 to y and 2 to x, the equation becomes true.
-2=4+b
b=-6
Thus,
y=2x-6 is true answer.
