Q2. Two balls are chosen randomly from an urn containing 8 white, 4 black, and 2 orange balls. Suppose that we win $2 for each black ball selected and we lose $1 for each white ball selected. Let X denote our winnings. What are the possible values of X, and what are the probabilities associated with each value i.e. create a discrete probability distribution table for winning amount. Compute the expected value of winnings and standard deviation of winnings. You can setup an Excel spreadsheet to perform the calculations. Upload your Excel file on BB using the link Homework> HW3.
