Q1. Let p denote the probability that the coin will turn up as a Head when tossed. Given n independent tosses of the same coin, what is the probability distribution associated with the number of Head outcomes observed? Q2. Suppose you have information that a coin in your possession is not a fair coin, and further that either Pr(Head|p) = p is certain to be equal to either p = 0.33 or p = 0.66. Assuming you believe this information,...

Bonus Group Project 1: Negative Binomial Distribution Negative Binomial experiment is based on sequences of Bernoulli trials with probability of success p. Let x+m be the number of trials to achieve m successes, and then x has a negative binomial distribution. In summary, negative binomial distribution has the following properties Each trial can result in just two possible outcomes. One is called a success and the other is called a failure. The trials are independent The probability of success, denoted...

5. If you toss a coin 10 times, you got 8 head out of ten tosses. What is the probability of this event if the coin is fair (P[X=8|Coin=normal], X is a random variable representing number of head out of ten tosses)? What is the probability of this event if the coin is fake( P[X=8|Coin=fake])?

Given n = 5, p = 0.65. Find P(3) using both binomial distribution and geometric distribution. Group of answer choices Binomial distribution: P(3) = 0.334. Geometric distribution: P(3) = 0.08 Binomial distribution: P(3) = 0.181. Geometric distribution: P(3) = 0.08 Binomial distribution: P(3) = 0.334. Geometric distribution: P(3) = 0.148 Binomial distribution: P(3) = 0.181. Geometric distribution: P(3) = 0.148

Toss a fair coin twice. Let A be the event "At least one Head" and B be the event "At least one Tail". Which of the following is true? A A and B are independent B A and B are disjoint C The probability of their intersection is P(A)P(B) D P(A/B)=P(B/A)

A coin is tossed repeatedly; on each toss, a head is shown with probability p or a tail with probability 1 − p. All tosses are independent. Let E denote the event that the first run of r successive heads occurs earlier than the first run of s successive tails. Let A denote the outcome of the first toss. Show that P(E|A=head)=pr−1 +(1−pr−1)P(E|A=tail). Find a similar expression for P (E | A = tail) and then find P (E).
