At a carnival, contestants are asked to keep rolling a pair of dice until they roll snake eyes. The number of rolls needed has a
Stells [14]

Answer:

The two numbers of rolls are 25.2 and 46.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chebyshev's theorem states that, if X is a r.v. with mean µ and standard deviation σ, then for any positive number k, we have  

P (|X -\mu| < k\sigma) \geq  (1-\frac{1}{k^{2}})

Here

(1-\frac{1}{k^{2}})=0.75\\\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{k^{2}}=0.25\\\\\Rightarrow k=\sqrt{\frac{1}{0.25}}\\\\\Rightarrow k=2

Then we know that,

|X - \mu| \geq k\sigma,\\\\  \Rightarrow \mu - k\sigma \leq X \leq \mu + k\sigma.

Here it is given that mean (µ) = 36 and standard deviation (σ) = 5.4.

Compute the two values between which at least 75% of the contestants lie as follows:

P(\mu - k\sigma \leq X \leq \mu + k\sigma)=0.75\\\\P(36 - 2\cdot\ 5.4 \leq X \leq 36 + 2\cdot\ 5.4)=0.75\\\\P(25.2\leq X\leq 46.8)=0.75

Thus, the two numbers of rolls are 25.2 and 46.8.
