Suppose we have a weighted or unfair six-sided die.

a) Construct a probability mass function where each side of the die has a different weight (or probability). Make sure that your probabilities sum to one

b) Construct the cumulative distribution function for the hypothetical die you created in part a 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Note:

Hi! Thank you for the question. We have helped you create a probability distribution for a dies in which each side of the die has a different weight or probability. This is an arbitrary example; an infinite number of such probability distributions are possible.
