Yes, here we use Negative binomial distribution.
X is the Negative binomial random variable
where,
i = Number of success = Number of heads
r = Number of failures
p = Probability of success = Probability of heads

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....

A fair coin is flipped independently until the first Heads is observed. Let the random variable K be the number of tosses until the first Heads is observed plus 1. For example, if we see TTTHTH, then K = 5. For k 1, 2, , K, let Xk be a continuous random variable that is uniform over the interval [0, 5]. The Xk are independent of one another and of the coin flips. LetX = Σ i Xo Find the...

Problem 7) True/False A fair coin is tossed 20 times. A fair coin means that the probability of getting a head is the same as the probability of getting a tail. Let X be the number of coins of getting head. Note that there are only two possible outcomes: getting head or tail after tossing the coin. X follows a binomial distribution with n=20.p=0.5. Answer the following questions. True/False: In this problem, the random variable X is considered as a...
