the following situations, state whether the given assignment of probabilities is possible or not. Explain your reasoning. a. When a die is rolled, the number of spots on the up-face has P(1)=1/2, P(2)=0, P(3)=0, P(4)=1/6, P(5)=1/6, and P(6)=1/6 sorry this one is really confusing

@blurbendy could you help?

OpenStudy (blurbendy):

The probabilities should all add up to 1, which they do P(2), P(3) have 0 probability, so maybe the dice doesnt have a 2 or a 3, or the dice is rigged.

OpenStudy (blurbendy):

That doesn't seem likely though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think that's correct though, that's what I thought to begin with

OpenStudy (blurbendy):

cool
