P(X = 0) = 1/10 (given)
remaining integers are 7 from the set and the probability is to be divided equally among them
so the probability of one of the remaining 7 integers = 1 - (1/10) divided by 7 = (9/10) / 7 = 9/70

i) P(X<2) = P(X = - 2) + P(X = - 1) + P(X = 0) + P(X=1)
= 9/70 + 9/70 + 1/10 + 9/70 = 0.486

ii) the probability distribution table looks like

x - 2 - 1 0 1 2 3 4 5
p(X=x) 9/70 9/70 1/10 9/70 9/70 9/70 9/70 9/70

now calculate the variance using the formula
E(X^2) - ((E(X))^2

iii) we are going from the negative of a positive number to its twice. so let's check the possibility of a number existing in negative which is - 2 or - 1
so now first possibility
let a be 1 so probabilities should be added from - 1 to 2(1) = 2

P(X=-1) + P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)
= 9/70 + 1/10 + 9/70 + 9/70 = 17/35 (shown)[
