Suppose that a legal coin has a 50% probability of flipping "heads" (Pheads = 0.5) and a 50% probability of flipping "tails" (Ptails = 0.5). If this legal coin is flipped nine times, what is the probability of flipping five heads and four tails in any order?

The Belgian Euro coin is known to be biased: it has a probability of 0.56 of landing on heads when flipped, and a probability of 0.44 of landing on tails. Answer the questions below using the event ‘landing on heads’ as a success, and ‘landing on tails’ as a failure. 1. What is the expected value for heads of flipping the Belgian Euro coin 50 times? 2. What is the standard deviation for flipping the Belgian Euro coin 50 times?
You have a biased coin, where the probability of flipping a heads is 70%. You flip once, and the coin comes up tails. What is the expected number of flips from that point (so counting that as flip #0) until the number of heads flipped in total equals the number of tails?
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...
Problem 02 Design a finite-state machine that records the results of flipping a coin a certain number of times. The state machine takes as an input flip which is zero for heads and one for tails. The states are labeled so as to indicate the numbers of heads and the nurnber of tails, NONE. H. T, HH, TT HT, HHH, etc. The order that the heads or tails was flipped does not matter, only the total numbers of heads and...
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...
probability: please solve it step by step. thanks An unfair coin has probability of heads equal to p. An experiment consists of flipping this unfair coin n times and then counting the number of heads. a. Let Y; be a random variable which is 1 if the ith flip is heads and 0 if the ith flip is tails, where 1 sisn. Show that E (Y) = p and V(Y) = p-p2. b. Derive the moment-generating function of Y. c....
3 Probability and Statistics [10 pts] Consider a sample of data S obtained by flipping a coin five times. X,,i e..,5) is a random variable that takes a value 0 when the outcome of coin flip i turned up heads, and 1 when it turned up tails. Assume that the outcome of each of the flips does not depend on the outcomes of any of the other flips. The sample obtained S - (Xi, X2,X3, X, Xs) (1, 1,0,1,0 (a)...
