Asked by David


Eduardo has a red 6-sided number cube and a blue 6-sided number cube. The faces of the cubes are numbered 1 through 6.

Eduardo rolls both cubes at the same time.

The random variable X is the number on the red cube minus the number on the blue cube.

What is P(−2≤X≤1)?

I'm thoroughly vexed with this question. It's not covered in my lessons, and I can't get help with a teacher until tomorrow. If anyone can help, I would majorly appreciate it. Thanks. :)

1 2 -1
1 3 -2

2 1 1
2 2 0
2 3 -1
2 4 -2
...

Then divide the successes by the total of 36
