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.)
All the tosses of a coin is independent of each other. Hence,
b) P(First toss is heads and next eleven tosses are tails)
= (1/2)*(1/2)11
= 1/4096

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are flipping coins. Guildenstern has a bag with 100 coins in it. All of them are fair coins, except for 10 that each have heads on both sides and 2 that each have tails on both sides. Guildenstern reaches into the bag without looking, removes a randomly chosen coin, with each of the 100 coins equally likely, and flips it. Give exact answers expressed as simplified fractions. (a) What is the probability that it is one of...
4. You toss n coins, each showing heads with probability p, independently of the other tosses. Each coin that shows tails is tossed again. Let X be the total number of tails (a) What type of distribution does X have? Specify its parameter(s). (b) What is the probability mass function of the total number of tails X?
A defective coin minting machine produces coins whose probability of heads is a random variable P with PDF peP, p [0,1], otherwise fp(p) A coin produced by this machine is selected and tossed repeatedly, with successive tosses assumed independent. (a) Find the probability that a coin toss results in heads. (b) Given that a coin toss resulted in heads, find the conditional PDF of P (c) Given that a first coin toss resulted in heads, find the conditional probability of...
What is the probability of flipping 4 coins and getting all Heads? What is the probability of drawing 3 marbles (without replacement) from 3 Blue, 3 Red, and 3 Yellow and getting no Yellow ones?
What is the theoretical probability that all fourfour will come up headsheads? b. What is the theoretical probability the first toss is tailstails AND the next threethree are headsheads?
(1 point) Consider a game played by flipping biased coins where the probability of heads is 0.14. You first choose the number of coins you want to flip You must pay $1.5 for each coin you choose to flip. You flip all the coins at the same time. You win $1000 if one or more coins comes up heads How many coins should you flip to maximize your expected profit? Answer: What is your maximum expected profit? Answer: $ (Your...
This is discrete mathematics If you do it right, I must give praise. You must use probability space is a triple relative acknowledge. S: is a sample sapce E=p(s) is the set of all events P: E-->R is a function. The important thing that I need to say three times: If you don't know how to do it, please don't do it. don't copy others, especially for question (a), give sample space, probability measure The important thing that I need...
A high-school teacher takes an afternoon to teach their class some basic ideas about probability. They do this by getting the students to toss coins (head or tails) and set up a tournament where the 32 students split into pairs and have a contest: the students in each pair toss a coin ten times and the winner is the student who tosses the most heads. Then the 16 students who were winners in the first round are again split into...
