This document defines several random variables and asks to construct their probability mass functions. The random variables are: X defined as the absolute difference between two dice rolls, X defined as the number of students hired out of 4 applicants, Z defined as the number of blue marbles picked from a box of 4 red and 5 blue marbles, the number of red cards from 4 draws among 12 face cards, the number of prime numbers from 3 spins of a spinner divided into 6 sections numbered 1-6, the number of correct umbrella matches from 3 random returns, and the number of female employees selected from a lottery of 5 out of 6 male and 6 female employees.

Construct the probability mass functions of the random variables defined

in the given.
A green die and a red die are rolled. The random variable X is the
absolute value of the difference between the number of spots of the green
die and the number of spots on the red die.

Construct the probability mass functions of the random variables defined


in the given.
Four students are applying for a summer job in a fast – food restaurant.
The result of the application is that a student may be hired or rejected.
Assume that a student is equally likely to be hired or rejected for the job.
The random variable X is the number of students among the four who are
hired.
