Question 1109846: Consider a loaded die, in 10 independent throws the probability that an even number turns up 5 times is twice the probability that even number turns up 4 times. Prepare the probability distribution of the even numbers and compute the mean and variance. Verify your results as.
1) μ = E(x) = np 2) Var(x) = σ^2 = npq
Where p = prob. of even number q = 1-p
