A fair coin is tossed independently four times. The probability of the event ''The number of times heads show up is more than the number of times tails show up'' is

Consider two independent random variables $$X$$ and $$Y$$ with identical distributions. The variables $$X$$ and $$Y$$ take values $$0, 1$$ and $$2$$ with probability $$1/2,$$ $$1/4$$ and $$1/4$$ respectively. What is the conditional probability $$P(X+Y=2/X-Y=0)?$$

A discrete random variable $$X$$ takes value from $$1$$ to $$5$$ with probabilities as shown in the table. A student calculates the mean of $$X$$ as $$3.5$$ and her teacher calculates the variance to $$X$$ as $$1.5.$$ Which of the following statements is true?
