question 47

Multiple Choice

Make a probability distribution for the given set of events.
-Suppose that you start with a normal deck of 52 cards and remove everything except the twos, threes, and fours. So you now have a deck of twelve cards consisting of four twos, four threes, and
Four fours. A card is drawn at random and replaced then another card is drawn at random and
Replaced. Make a probability distribution for the sum of the two numbers that are drawn.
