... Finally, since the sum of all numbers on the dice is never less than 2 and always at most 12, we have F (x) = 0 if x < 2 and F (x) = 1 if x ≥ 12. If one knows the height of the graph of F at all points where jumps occur, then the entire graph of F is easily drawn. It is for this reason that we shal ...

... Another solution to the previous problem, one which utilizes the very useful basic probability rule that P (Ac) = 1 − P (A) for any event A, is to determine the probability of the complement of the event. The logical opposite of the event that a heads eventually occurs is the event that it never occ ...
