The probability that when a drawing pin is tossed in the air it lands with point facing up 'point up' is 1/4 and that it lands with point facing down 'point down' is 3/4

\n" ); document.write( "The answer i got for Q1 was P(X=x)
\n" ); document.write( "x=0 9/16 = 9/16

\n" ); document.write( "Horizon axis has 0 , 1, and 2
\n" ); document.write( "Vertical axis is 16ths and has columns
\n" ); document.write( "The histogram has 3 columns 0 to 1; 1 to 2, 2 to 3 are the three bases
\n" ); document.write( "The columns are 9 , 22, and 33 high
