    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?

    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...

Prove X and Y are dependent (b) Now, toss the same coin n times, where n is a random integer with Poisson distribution: n~Poisson(A) Let X be the random variable counting the number of heads, Y the random variable counting the number of tails. Prove...

    You suspect that a coin is biased such that the probability heads is flipped (instead of tails) is 52%. You flip the coin 51 times and observe that 31 of the coin flips are heads. The random variable you are investigating is defined as X = 1 for heads and X = 0 for tails, and you wish to perform a "Z-score" test to test the null hypothesis that H0: u = 0.52 vs. the alternative hypothesis Ha: u >  0.52....

    Assume that a coin is flipped where the probability of coin lands "Heads" is 0.49. The coin is flipped once more. This time, the probability of obtaining the first flip's result is 0.38. The random variable X is defined as the total number of heads observed in two flips. On the other hand, the random variable Y is defined as the absolute difference between the total number of heads and the total number of tails observed in two flips. Calculate...

    3- (20 points) A random experiment consists of simultaneously and independently flipping a coin five times and observing the n-5 resulting values facing up. The coin is biased with: P(heads) - 0.75 : P(tails) p-0.25 Define a Random Variable (RV) X equal to the number of fails that we observe during the flips. a) Give the probability P. that the random variable X will take on the value 3 ANSWER: P,= (simplified number) b) Give the mean of X, that...

    Question 2 Suppose you have a fair coin (a coin is considered fair if there is an equal probability of being heads or tails after a flip). In other words, each coin flip i follows an independent Bernoulli distribution X Ber(1/2). Define the random variable X, as: i if coin flip i results in heads 10 if coin flip i results in tails a. Suppose you flip the coin n = 10 times. Define the number of heads you observe...

    Can someone please answer these three questions ASAP? 1) A biased coin with probability of heads p, is tossed n times. Let X and Y be the total number of heads and tails, respectively. What is the correlation ρ(X, Y )? 2) Choose a point at random from the unit square [0, 1] × [0, 1]. We also choose the second random point, independent of the first, uniformly on the line segment between (0, 0) and (1, 0). The random...

    Problem(13) (10 points) An unfair coin is tossed, and it is assumed that the chance of getting a head, H. is (Thus the chance of setting tail, T. is.) Consider a random experiment of throwing the coin 5 times. Let S denote the sample space (a) (2 point) Describe the elements in S. (b) (2 point) Let X be the random variable that corresponds to the number of the heads coming up in the four times of tons. What are...
