2. In your pocket is a random number N of coins, where N has the Poisson distribution with parameter . You toss each coin once, with heads showing with probability p each time. Show that the total number of heads has the Poisson distribution with parameter Ap.

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.)

9.74. Suppose we toss a biased coin independently until we get two heads or two tails in total. The coin produces a head with probability p on any toss. 1. What is the sample space of this experiment? 2. What is the probability function? 3. What is the probability that the experiment stops with two heads?

A box contains five coins. For each coin there is a different probability that a head will be obtained when the coin is tossed. (Some of the coins are not fair coins!) Let pi denote the probability of a head when the i th coin is tossed (i = 1, . . . , 5), and suppose that p1 = 0, p2 =1/4, p3 =1/2, p4 =3/4, p5 =1. The experiment we are interested in consists in selecting at random...

A machine produces coins such that the probability of heads, p, follows a Beta distribution with parameters (α, β) = (1, 1). A coin produced by this machine is picked at random and tossed independently n times. Let Y be the number of heads. (a) Find E[Y]. (b) Write down the pmf for Y (your answer can include unevaluated integrals and combination numbers [aka “n choose m” symbols]).

There are two steps in the description of this problem. First,
toss the coin until a head appears. Then, toss the coin until a
tail appears.
It is NOT "toss a coin until a head appears" problem.

magine flipping twelve fair coins. a. What is the theoretical probability that all twelve will come up tails? b. What is the theoretical probability the first toss is heads AND the next eleven are tails? a. P(all twelve tosses are tails)equals StartFraction 1 Over 4096 EndFraction (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.) b. P(first toss is heads and next eleven tosses are tails)equals nothing (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)
