Two tetrahedral dice, each with faces labelled 1, 2, 3 and 4, are thrown and the random variable X represents the sum of the numbers shown on the dice. li) Find the probability distribution of X. (ii) Illustrate the distribution and describe the shape of the distribution. (iii) What is the probability that any throw of the dice results in a value of X which is an odd number?
