Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate \( P(3 \leq x < 6) \)

To find \( P(3 \leq x < 6) \), we sum the probabilities for \( x = 3, 4, \) and \( 5 \):

\[ P(3 \leq x < 6) = P(3) + P(4) + P(5) = 0.22 + 0.21 + 0.28 = 0.71 \]

Step 2: Calculate \( P(x > 3) \)

To find \( P(x > 3) \), we sum the probabilities for \( x = 4, 5, \) and \( 6 \):

\[ P(x > 3) = P(4) + P(5) + P(6) = 0.21 + 0.28 + 0.02 = 0.51 \]

Final Answer

The results are:

  • \( P(3 \leq x < 6) = 0.71 \)
  • \( P(x > 3) = 0.51 \)

Thus, the final answers are: \[ \boxed{P(3 \leq x < 6) = 0.71} \] \[ \boxed{P(x > 3) = 0.51} \]
