Step 2 We found the following probability distribution for the die, in terms of an unknown x. Outcome 1 2 3 4 5 Probability 3x 3x Recall the property of probability distributions that for a sample space S = {s,, s2, ..., s,}, we have P(s,) + P(s2) + ... + P(s,) = 1. In other words, probabilities of all the outcomes (rolling a 1, or a 2, or a 3, or a 4, or a 5, or a 6) will sum to 1. Use this fact to write an equation in terms of x, and solve for x. P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5) + P(6) = 1 Зх + Ex Your answer cannot be understood or graded.
