To find the probability of throwing at most 2 sixes in 6 throws of a single die, we can use the binomial distribution formula. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the parameters of the binomial distribution - **N** (number of trials) = 6 (since the die is thrown 6 times) - **P** (probability of success, i.e., getting a six) = 1/6 (since there is one six on a die) - **Q** (probability of failure, i.e., not getting a six) = 1 - P = 5/6 ### Step 2: Define the random variable ...
