Two fair dice, one yellow and one blue, are rolled. the value of the blue die is subtracted from the value of the yellow die. which of the following best describes the theoretical probability distribution? a) constant b) symmetric c) positively skewed d) negatively skewed

B) symmetric

Step-by-step explanation:

We will find the sample space for rolling two dices first

Here first value in ordered pair represents yellow die and second represents blue die

(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6), (4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6), (5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6), (6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6)

The subtraction gives us:

0 , -1 , -2, -3, -4, -5, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3, -4, 2, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3, 3, 2, 1, 0, -1, -2, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, -2, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0

So the distribution will be as follows:

X      5       4       3       2        1        0        -1       -2      -3       -4      -5

P(X)  1/36  2/36  3/36 4/36  5/36  6/36  5/36  4/36  3/36  2/36  1/36

By observing the probabilities, we can conclude that the distribution will be symmetric

Hence, Option B is correct ..

answer: 2530

hope this

a.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1 distribute 2 to every term in the parentheses

step 2 add 10 on both sides of the equal sign
