1. **State the problem:** We have a discrete random variable $X$ representing the number of games played per visit with the given probability distribution:
$$\begin{array}{c|ccccccc}
x & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 \\
\hline
P(x) & 0.05 & 0.15 & 0.15 & 0.25 & 0.20 & 0.10 & 0.10
\end{array}$$
We want to find:
- (a) The probability that a child will play more than four games, i.e., $P(X > 4)$.
- (b) The probability that a child will play at least two games, i.e., $P(X \geq 2)$.
2. **Calculate $P(X > 4)$:**
This means $X$ can be 5, 6, or 7.
$$P(X > 4) = P(5) + P(6) + P(7) = 0.20 + 0.10 + 0.10 = 0.40$$
3. **Calculate $P(X \geq 2)$:**
This means $X$ can be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7.
$$P(X \geq 2) = P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5) + P(6) + P(7)$$
$$= 0.15 + 0.15 + 0.25 + 0.20 + 0.10 + 0.10 = 0.95$$
4. **Summary of answers:**
- $P(X > 4) = 0.40$
- $P(X \geq 2) = 0.95$
