(1 point) Suppose an unfair coin with probability of landing heads is flipped a total of 14 times, yielding a total of 4 heads. Find each of the following. (Write theta for 2.) (a) The likelihood function L0) = (b) The derivative of the log-likelihood function d 5 [In LO] dᎾ (c) The maximum likelihood estimate for 0 is ê=
Answer part a and part b
please!!!
(a) What is the conditional probability that exactly four Tails appear w when a fair coin is flipped six times, given that the first flip came up Heads? (I.e. the coin , then is flipped five more times with Tails appearing exactly lour times.) (b) What if the coin is biased so that the probability of landing Heads is 1/3? (Hint: The binomial distribution might be helpful here.)
(a) What is the conditional...
Suppose you plan flipping a coin twice where the probability p of heads has the density function f(p) = 6p(1 - p), 0 < p < 1. Let Y denote the number of heads of this “random” coin. Y given a value of p is Binomial with n = 2 and probability of success p. a. Write down the joint density of Y and p. b. Find P(Y = 2). c. If Y = 2, then find the probability that...
of a fair coin. Also use the binomial formula and compare the two probabilities. For the normal approximation use z (x-H)/a, then use the tables, and for the binomial use (n C x) "(1-0) . Given heads is a success when we flip a coin, a six when we roll a die, and getting an ace when we select a card from a 52-card deck. Find the mean and std. deviation of the total number of successes when we (a)...
Toss a fair coin 4 times. Let Y be the number of heads. (a) What is the probability mass function of Y ? Compare your answer to the probability mass function of Binomial distribution. (b) What is the cumulative distribution function of Y ? (c) What is the expected value of Y ? (d) What is the variance of Y?
Let X represent the number of heads subtracts the number of tails obtained when a coin is tossed 3 times, i.e., X = number of heads − number of tails. (a) Find the probability mass function of X (b) Given that X is at least 0, what is the probability that X is at least 2
Example: A coin is tossed twice. Let X denote the number of head on the first toss and Y denote the total number of heads on the 2tosses. Construct the join probability mass function of X and Y is given below and answer the following questions. f(x, y) x Row Total 0 1 y 0 1 2 Column Total (a) Find P(X = 0,Y <= 1) (b) Find P(X + Y = 2) (c) Find P(Y ≤ 1) (d)...
2. Let X be the number of Heads when we toss a coin 3 times. Find the probability distribution (that is, the probability function) for X.
A balanced coin is tossed three times. Let Y equal the number of heads observed. (a) Use the formula for the binomial probability distribution to calculate the probabilities associated with Y = 0, 1, 2, and 3. PCY = 0) = P(Y = 1) = PLY = 2) = P(Y = 3) = (b) Construct the probability distribution below. ply) (c) Find the expected value and standard deviation of y, using the formulas E(Y) = np and V(Y) = npq....
In order to test whether a certain coin is fair, it is tossed ten times and the number of heads (X) is counted. Let p be the "head probability". We wish to test the null hypothesis: p = 0.5 against the alternative hypothesis: p > 0.5 at a significance level of 5%. (a) Suppose we will reject the null hypothesis when X is smaller than h. Find the value of h. (b) What is the probability of committing a type...
