Say you have a biased coin and you associate obtaining a head with the value 0 whereas obtaining a tail has a value of 2. Let X be the sum of the values obtained from tossing the coin three times. (Round your answers to 4 decimal places, if needed.)


(a) If the chance of having heads is 0.26, then what is the probability distribution of X ? (Complete the table)

x 0 2 4 6
P(X = x)


(b) What is P(X < 6)?


(c) What is P(1 < X < 5)?
