In flipping a coin 12 times and observing heads or tails, how many different outcomes can be obtained?
7. A random experiment consists of tossing a coin 4 times. Describe the sample space of this experiment. In what proportion of all outcomes of the experiment will there be exactly 2 heads?
3.1 An experiment consists of tossing a fair coin 5 times. (a) Find the probability mass and distribution functions for the number of heads realized. (b) Find the probability of realizing heads at least 3 times out of the 5 trials.
An experiment consists of tossing an unfair coin (53% chance of landing on heads) a specified number of times and recording the outcomes. (a) What is the probability that the first head will occur on the second trial? (Use 4 decimal places.) Does this probability change if we toss the coin three times? What if we toss the coin four times? The probability changes if we toss the coin three times, but does not change if we toss the coin...
An experiment consists of tossing an unfair coin (49% chance of landing on heads) a specified number of times and recording the outcomes. (a) What is the probability that the first head will occur on the second trial? (Use 4 decimal places.) Does this probability change if we toss the coin three times? What if we toss the coin four times? The probability changes if we toss the coin four times, but does not change if we toss the coin...
An experiment consists of tossing a coin 6 times. Let X be the random variable that is the number of heads in the outcome. Find the mean and variance of X.
Consider the experiment of tossing a coin three times. How many experimental outcomes exist?
a coin is weighted deliberately so that the probability of tossing heads is twice the probability of tossing tails. what is the probability of tossing three heads in a row? what is the probability of tossing three tails in a row? what is the relative probability of tossing three heads versus three tails?
Tossing a coin 8 times probability of obtaining three heads
3. (PMF – 8 points) Consider a sequence of independent trials of fair coin tossing. Let X denote a random variable that indicates the number of coin tosses you tried until you get heads for the first time and let y denote a random variable that indicates the number of coin tosses you tried until you get tails for the first time. For example, X = 1 and Y = 2 if you get heads on the first try and...
