A coin is tossed three times. X is the random variable for the number of heads occurring. a) Construct the probability distribution for the random variable X, the number of head occurring. b) Find P(x=2). c) Find P(x³1). d) Find the mean and the standard deviation of the probability distribution for the random variable X, the number of heads occurring.
A fair coin is tossed four times and let x represent the number of heads which comes out a. Find the probability distribution corresponding to the random variable x b. Find the expectation and variance of the probability distribution of the random variable x
A fair coin is tossed 20 times. Let X be the number of heads thrown in the first 10 tosses, and let Y be the number of heads tossed in the last 10 tosses. Find the conditional probability that X = 6, given that X + Y = 10.

Let random variable x represent the number of heads when a fair coin is tossed two times. a) construct a table describing probability distribution b) determine the mean and standard deviation of x (round to 2 decimal places)
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 five times. Let X denote the number of heads. Find the variance of X.
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.
