- Plz asaparrow_forwardO pts This is your third long answer question, to be done by hand and submitted through a dropbox labelled "Midterm Dropbox" Consider a game where we keep rolling a fair die until it lands on either 5 Or 6. but we can't roll forever, we need to stop at a maximum of 6 rolls, whichever comes first. So either a 5 or a 6, or a maximum of 6 rolls, whichever comes first. Let X denote the number of rolls made. Construct the probability distribution for X Write ALL YOUR WORK on paper, and submit a copy of your answer through the DROPBOX link provided for this midterm, after you finish the test. I will take a picture of my work. copy and paste it to a word document and submit either a VWORD or POF Me to the drapbox ik provided for this quention immeilutely atter finishing this am O I will nat submit a copy of my work to a dropbox therefore resulting in a grade of zero for this questionarrow_forwardM5arrow_forward
- Find the optimum strategy for player B. Choose the correct answer below and fill in the answer box(es) to complete your choice. OA. The game is strictly determined. Player B should choose column (Type a whole number.) OB. The game is not strictly determined. Player B should choose column 1 with probability, column 2 with probability ,and column 3 with probability (Type integers or simplified fractions.) The value of the game is (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.) # D L' 1. (10) Morearrow_forwardA bag contains 3 red marbles, 2 green ones, 1 lavender one, 1 yellow, and 3 orange marbles.
