1.Let A represent the numbers 1,2,3,4,5 and 6. Also, each of the values has equally likely outcomes. a. What is the pmf of X? b. Solve the expected value of X? c. Solve for the standard deviation of X? d. Solve for the variance of X?

The random variable $A$ has the following probability distribution: $$\begin{array}{l|ccccc}\hline \mathbf{A} & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\P(\boldsymbol{A}) & 0.6 & 0.1 & 0.1 & 0.1 & 0.1 \\\hline\end{array}$$ a. Find the mean and standard deviation of $A .$ b. How much of the probability distribution is within 2 standard deviations of the mean? c. What is the probability that $A$ is between $\mu-2 \sigma$ and $\mu+2 \sigma ?$
