Answer to Question 1

The distribution of the sample is somewhat similar to that of the given distribution. The two highest probabilities in the random data occurred at x = 1 and 3, matching the two highest probabilities for the given distribution. Also, the two lowest probabilities in the random data occurred at x = 4 and 5, matching the two lowest probabilities for the given distribution. Finally, the probability in the random data occurred at x = 2 is identical to that for the given distribution.
