the probability distribution is
\n" ); document.write( "for 2 as a sum 1/36 and |x-7| is not <3
\n" ); document.write( "3--2/36
\n" ); document.write( "4--3/36
\n" ); document.write( "5--4/36 and |x-7| IS <3, as are the next 4
\n" ); document.write( "6-5/36
\n" ); document.write( "7-6/36
\n" ); document.write( "8-5/36
\n" ); document.write( "9-4/36
\n" ); document.write( "10-3/36
\n" ); document.write( "11-2/36
\n" ); document.write( "12-1/36
\n" ); document.write( "So >8 would be 10/36 (may reduce or use decimals)
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "|x-7| < 3 would be the 5-9 group, the sum of which is 2/3
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "E(x)=7
\n" ); document.write( "V(x)=sum of squared deviations:
\n" ); document.write( "pair 2/12 and 3/11 and 4/10 and 5/9 and 6/8, and 7 will contribute nothing.
\n" ); document.write( "25*(2/36)+16(4/36)+9(6/36)+4(8/36)+1(10/36)=(1/36)(210)=210/36=5.833\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(singular die, plural dice)
