If you’re rolling a fair six-sided die, you have a probability of for rolling a six, and since you’re throwing it 20 times, the expected number of sixes would be . For odd-numbered outcomes, you can get 1, 3, or 5, making it a total of 3 odd outcomes out of 6. Hence, the average number of odd scores in 20 throws is .
To find the mean and standard deviation of , you add the means: . The variances sum up too, so gives you the total variance. If and , calculate the variances and , yielding . Therefore, you’d have .
Regarding the comparison of mass between the large bags and small bags of sugar, you’re trying to find . This involves combining the distributions with the method of transformation. Calculate which has the mean and double the variance. Generally, you can standardize it using the z-scores to find this probability, and it might yield a bit of mathematical exploration along the way!
