2.6 Suppose two dice are tossed and the numbers on the upper faces are observed. Let S denote the set of all possible pairs that can be observed. [These pairs can be listed, for example, by letting (2, 3) denote that a 2 was observed on the first die and a 3 on the second.] a Define the following subsets of S: A: The number on the second die is even. B: The sum of the two numbers is even....
Problem 5. Suppose two dice are tossed and the numbers on the upper faces are observed. Let S denote the set of all possible pairs that can be observed. The pairs can be listed, for example, by letting (2, 3) denote that a 2 was observed on the first die and a 3 on the second. Define the following subsets of S .A The number on the second die is odd. · B: The sum of the two numbers is...
1. be recorded. Define events Eli heads are observed, of the two faces is equally likely to hand face-up. Three balanced coins will be flipped once and the number of heads that land face-up is to 0,1,2,3. Note: "balanced" means each a. List all the outcomes in the Sample Space. b. Calculate the probability of each event, Eo,.., E c. Let A be the event "at least one head is observed". Calculate P(E2A) and P(AIE2)
2.1 Let Y denote the number of "heads” that occur when two coins are tossed. a. Derive the probability distribution of Y. b. Derive the cumulative probability distribution of Y. c. Derive the mean and variance of Y.

A fair coin with is tossed five times. Let A be the event that at least two heads appear; let B be the event that at most four heads appear; let C be the event that exactly 3 heads appear. Find the following probabilities: VII. 123 (a) P(A), P(B), and P(C) P(B|C), P(C|B), P(B|A) (b)
Franklin has three coins, two fair coins (head on one side and tail on the other side) and one two-headed coin. 1) He randomly picks one, flips it and gets a head. What is the probability that the coin is a fair one? 2) He randomly picks one, flips it twice. Compute the probability that he gets two tails. 3) He randomly picks one and flips it twice. Suppose B stands for the event that the first result is head, and...
(1 point) A fair coin is tossed three times and the events A, B, and C are defined as follows: A:{At least one head is observed } B:{At least two heads are observed } C: The number of heads observed is odd } Find the following probabilities by summing the probabilities of the appropriate sample points (note that is an even number): (a) P(A)= (b) P(B or (not C))= (c) P((not A) or B or C)=
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.
