A fair coin is tossed n times. Let X be the number of heads in this n toss. Given X = x, we generate a Poisson random variable Y with mean x. Find Var[Y]. Answer depends on n.
a. Suppose that a fair coin is tossed 15 times. If 10 heads are observed, determine an expression / equation for the probability that 7 heads occurred in the first 9 tosses. b. Now, generalize your result from part a. Now suppose that a fair coin is to be tossed n times. If x heads are observed in the n tosses, derive an expression for the probability that there were y heads observed in the first m tosses. Note the...
Problem 7. Suppose that a coin will be tossed repeatedly 100 times; let N be the number of Heads obtained from 100 fips of this coin. But you are not certain that the coin is a fair coin.it might be somewhat biased. That is, the probability of Heads from a single toss might not be 1/2. You decide, based on prior data, to model your uncertainty about the probability of Heads by making this probability into random variable as wl....
