You can put this solution on YOUR website! find the probability distribution for the random variable X, the total rolled with a pair of dice.
Sketch a 6 by 6 square with rows 1,2,..6 and columns 1,2,...6
Fill the square the row+colume sums:: 2,3,4..7;3,4,5..8.....7,8,9..12
-----
Obtain the:
(a)mean :: add the sums and divide by 36 to get the mean
-----
(b)variance:: use your variance formula
-------
(c)standard deviation = sqrt(variance)
