Problem 1 [20 pts]: An experiment consists of tossing a
coin 6 times. Let X be the random variable that is the number of
heads in the outcome. Find the mean and variance of X.
A coin is tossed 6 times. Let X be the number of Heads in the
resulting combination. Calculate the second moment of X.
(A).Calculate the second moment of X
(B). Find Var(X)
I toss a fair coin 20 times.
(a) Calculate the probability of tossing 18 or more heads
exactly.
(b) Now perform the same calculation, approximating the actual
binomial distribution with a normal distribution, picking a proper
random variable, and using the correct mean and variance. (c) Do
the results reasonably agree?
Consider an experiment: tossing a coin three times, and observe
head/tail facing up for each time.
a) What is the sample space?
b) List sample points in the event A that there are more tails
than heads.
c) List sample points in the event B that exact 2 tails face
up.
d) find the probabilities: P[A], P[B], P[A∩ B], P[AU B].
Let a random experiment consist of tossing two fair six sided
dice. Let x be the minimum number shown on the dice.
Determine the closed form PMF of x.
Hint: Creating a chart for all possible combinations of the two
rolls may be helpful.
a) A coin is tossed 4 times. Let X be the number of Heads on the
first 3 tosses and Y be the number of Heads on the last three
tossed. Find the joint probabilities pij = P(X = i, Y = j) for all
relevant i and j. Find the marginal probabilities pi+ and p+j for
all relevant i and j. b) Find the value of A that would make the
function Af(x, y) a PDF. Where f(x, y)...
Write an application that simulates coin tossing. Let the
program toss a coin each time the user chooses the “Toss Coin” menu
option. Count the number times each side of the coin appears.
Display the results. The program should call a method flip( ) that
takes no arguments and returns a zero to represent a tail or a one
to represent a head. There is a Random class that will allow you to
generate a random integer. Import it from...
