Consider the following discrete random variables
W is the number of times heads is observed when a fair
coin is tossed 10 times.
X is the number of red balls drawn when 10 balls are drawn
without replacement from an urn containing 50 red balls and 30
green balls.
Y is the number of hearts received when a 10-card hand is
dealt from a standard deck.
Z is the number of hearts drawn when 1 card is drawn at
random from each of 10 separate decks.
Which of these random variables have a Binomial distribution?
A. W only
B. Z only
C. W and Z only
D. W, Y and Z only
E. all of them

a. Suppose that a fair coin is tossed 15 times. If 10 heads are observed, determine an expression / equation for the probability that 7 heads occurred in the first 9 tosses. b. Now, generalize your result from part a. Now suppose that a fair coin is to be tossed n times. If x heads are observed in the n tosses, derive an expression for the probability that there were y heads observed in the first m tosses. Note the...
a coin is tossed 12 times then what is the probability at most 4 of the tosses are heads? what is the probability of the heads number more than 4 and less than 7? four balls are drawn at random from a box containing 2 red 2 white and 1 yellow balls what is the probability that the remaining ball is red
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.
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.
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.
Suppose a fair coin is tossed 280 times. Find the probability that the number of Heads observed is 151 or more. Use Binomial Distribution and Normal Approximation and compare the results.
A fair coin is tossed 10 times and the number of heads is counted. Complete parts (a) through (d). a. Use the binomial distribution to find the probability of getting 5 heads. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) b. Use the binomial distribution to find the probability of getting at least 5 heads. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) c. Use the binomial distribution to find the probability of getting 5 to 7 heads. (Round to four decimal...
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 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.
