What is an example of a Continuous Random Variable and why?
Answers vary. The variable is continuous because it has infinite values

Fill in the missing values. μx+y= 4.6 μx = 2 μy = (A) (See tables 4 and 5)

If you have enough data to do so, find the variance for the following set of data, show all work. If not, explain why you do not have enough data. (See table 12)
You cannot calculate the variance because you need to know the probability for each variable in order to find the variance.

What does the Law of Large numbers state?
As sample size increases, the sample mean becomes closer to the population mean

Tom has a bag of 10 coins and tells Rosa that he will give her $5 if she picks a red coin, $1 if she picks a blue coin, and nothing if she picks a yellow coin. She cannot look and only gets one try. The bag contains six yellow coins, three blue coins, and one red coins. Create a probability distribution chart for this scenario.
See table 6.
