Use the following to answer the questions below:In the game Pass the Pigs, players score (or lose) ...

Use the following to answer the questions below:

In the game Pass the Pigs, players score (or lose) points by rolling a pair of rubber pigs. The number of points scored depends upon the configuration of the pigs when they land. A paper that appeared in the Journal of Statistics Education (Volume 14, Number 3, 2006) describes a dataset obtained by rolling the pigs many times. The probability function for the number of points scored on a roll (X) is displayed in the following table:

x	0	1	5	10	15	20	25	40	60
p(x)	0.2170	0.2173	0.3895	0.0847	0.0285	0.0622	0.0003	0.0003	0.0002

Round all answers to two decimal places.

Compute the standard deviation of the number of points scored on a roll.
