Suppose that you get the opportunity to play a coin flipping game where if your first flip is a “head”, then you get to flip five more times; otherwise you only get to flip two more times. Assuming that the coin is fair and that each flip is independent, what is the expected total number of “heads”?

1) Let S = {H, T} be the sample space associated to the fair coin-flipping. Is {H} independent from {T}? 2) Let S = {HH, HT, TH, T T} be the sample space associated to flipping fair coin twice. Consider two events A = {HH, HT} and B = {HT, T H}. Are they independent? 3) Suppose now we have a biased coin that will give us head with probability 2/3 and tail with probability 1/3. Let S = {HH,...

Determine the probability of getting a tail of a unfair coin given that this coin on average, in 1.5 out of 100 attempts, takes 3 or more flips to get its first Head. For example, TTTH or TTTTTTH happens 1.5 times on average out of 100 attempt.
