To solve the problem, we need to find the probability of rolling an even number on a loaded die where the probability of each face is proportional to the number on that face. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Probabilities**: Since the probability of a face \( i \) (where \( i = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 \)) is proportional to \( i \), we can express the probabilities as: - \( P(1) = k \) - \( P(2) = 2k \) ...
