4. Toss a fair coin 6 times and let X denote the number of heads that appear. Compute P(X ≤ 4). If the coin has probability p of landing heads, compute P(X ≤ 3) 4. Toss a fair coin 6 times and let X denote the number of heads that appear. Compute P(X 4). If the coin has probability p of landing heads, compute P(X < 3).
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?
Extra question: Toss a coin three times. Let X denote the number of heads in the results. Let Y denote the absolute value of the difference between the number of heads and the number of tails. What is the frequency function of (X,Y)?
Q3. Suppose we toss a coin until we see a heads, and let X be the number of tosses. Recall that this is what we called the geometric distribution. Assume that it is a fair coin (equal probability of heads and tails). What is the p.m.f. of X? (I.e., for an integer i, what is P(X=i)? What is ?[X]? ({} this is a discrete variable that takes infinitely many values.)
A fair coin is tossed 3 times. Let X denote a 0 if the first toss is a head or 1 if the first toss is a zero. Y denotes the number of heads. Find the distribution of X. Of Y. And find the joint distribution of X and Y.
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.
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
