Math 464 - Fall 14 - Homework 5 1. Roll two six
... 4. I roll a six-sided die until I get a 6. Then I roll it some more until I get an even number. Let X be the total number of rolls. So here are some possible outcomes with the resulting value of X: 24126154: X=8 364: X=3 3463112: X=7 15466: X=5 Find the mean and variance of X. Hint: write X as the ...

As long as we were just doing data analysis, searching for patterns, or summarizing features of our data, the distinction between population and sample was not important. Now, as we begin to understand what our ...
