1. If you have a coin (you may assume that it is perfectly weighted and cannot land on its side). The coin then can land on heads or tails. What are the chances of you flipping it 4 times in a row and having it come up heads each time? What are the chances of you flipping it 4 times in a row and having it come up tails each time? What are the chance of it coming up heads 5 times in a row? Tails 5 times in a row?

2. If I have a 6 sided die (singular of dice). What are the chances that I can roll it 3 times in a row and NEVER have it roll a 3? What are the chances that I can roll it 3 times in a row and NEVER have it roll a 2?

3. If you draw 1 card out of a deck of 52 cards, what are the chances of drawing a 2? What about a 4?

A coin may or may not have a bias. It is thought that the coin has a 10% bias toward heads. A student is tasked with flipping the coin a thousand times to test this. The results come back as 575 times heads and 425 times tails. Is the coin biased? What is the true bias of the coin using a Bayesian update technique?

java beginner level NO ARRAYS in program Flip a coin (Assignment) How many times in a row can you flip a coin and gets heads? Use the random number generator to simulate the flipping of the coin. 0 means heads, 1 means tails. Start a loop, flip it, if heads, count it and keep flipping. If tails, stop the loop. Display the number of times in a row that heads came up. Once this is working, wrap a while loop...

I have a fair coin and a weighted coin that lands heads 60% of the time. I grab a coin at random. I flip that coin 5 times and get heads 4 times and tails once. What is the probability that the coin I grabbed was the weighted coin? (answer to 3 decimal places)

If I tell you that I have a coin, but it is a special coin. In that, I mean that it is not a 50/50 coin. However, I don't know how likely it is for it to land on heads (or tails). So we decide to flip it 10 times and we get 40% heads (which is 0.40 as a proportion). Are you willing to say that it is a 40/60 coin? Why or why not? after we flipped it...

You flip a coin until getting heads. Let X be the number of coin flips. a. What is the probability that you flip the coin at least 8 times? b. What is the probability that you flip the coin at least 8 times given that the first, third, and fifth flips were all tails? c. You flip three coins. Let X be the total number of heads. You then roll X standard dice. Let Y be the sum of those...

You are flipping a fair coin with one side heads, and the other tails. You flip it 30 times. a) What probability distribution would the above most closely resemble? b) If 8 out of 30 flips were heads, what is the probability of the next flip coming up heads? c) What is the probability that out of 30 flips, not more than 15 come up heads? d) What is the probability that at least 15 out 30 flips are heads?...

You select a coin at random: 2/3 of the coins are unfair, 1/3 of the coins are fair. The fair coins are equally likely to flip heads or tails. The unfair coins flip heads 3/4 of the times, and tails 1/4 of the times. You flip the selected coin and get heads or tails. Find (1) the probability that the selected coin is fair given the flip is heads, (2) the probability that the selected coin is fair given the...

A selection of coin is known to be either fair (with a probability 0.5 of coming up heads or tails when flipped) or biased (with a probability 0.75 of tails, 0.25 of heads.) Further. it is known that 1/10 of the coins are biased. a) You select a coin at random. What are the prior odds (not probability) that you have picked a biased coin? b) You select a coin at random and flip it; you get tails. What are...

(c) What is the probability of tails appearing on at most one of the four flips? (d) What is the probability of tails appearing on either the first or the last flip (or both)? (e) What is the probability of tails appearing...
