(a) You flip a fair coin four times, generating the sequence HTTH. What is the probability of that result occurring? (b) What is the probability that flipping a fair coin twice produces a head on one of those flips and a tail on the other flip? (c) What is the probability that flipping a fair coin four times produces two heads and two tails, in any order? (d) What is the probability that flipping a fair coin ten times produces five heads and five tails, in any order?

If you flip a fair coin, the probability that the result is heads will be 0.50. A given coin is tested for fairness using a hypothesis test of H0:p=0.50 versus HA:p≠0.50. The given coin is flipped 180 times, and comes up heads 110 times. Assume this can be treated as a Simple Random Sample. The test statistic for this sample z and the p value
