A machine produces coins such that the probability of heads, p, follows a Beta distribution with parameters (α, β) = (1, 1). A coin produced by this machine is picked at random and tossed independently n times. Let Y be the number of heads.
(a) Find E[Y].
(b) Write down the pmf for Y (your answer can include unevaluated integrals and combination numbers [aka “n choose m” symbols]).

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...
