Question 6 of 10 The following table shows the probability of rolling the numbers 1 through 8
on a fair 8-sided die.

What is the standard deviation of the random variable X, "the number that
comes up on the die"?

11

step-by-step explanation:

32.50-7.50=25

225/25=11

what i would say the best answer is a. 40.5

85.560%

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64.   therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560

answer: the answer is b. i think hope i got it correct
