JAVA PROGRAMMING Implement a class Purse. A purse contains a collection of coins. For simplicity, we will only store the coin names in an ArrayList<String>. Supply a method void addCoin(String coinName). Add a method toString to the Purse class that prints the coins in the purse in the format Purse[Quarter,Dime,Nickel,Dime]. Write a method reverse that reverses the sequence of coins in a purse. Implement a TestPurse class with a main method in it. It will use the toString method to...

A jar contains 100 coins. One of the coins is a trick coin with heads on both sides. The other 99 coins are ordinary coins with heads probability .5. A coin is selected at random. (a) What is the probability the coin selected is the trick coin? (b) The coin selected is tossed 7 times, and it happens to land heads each of those times. Now what is the probability it is the trick coin?

A box contains three fair coins and one biased coin. For the biased coin, the probability that any flip will result in a head is 1/3. Al draws two coins from the box, flips each of them once, observes an outcome of one head and one tail and returns the coins to the box. Bo then draws one coin from the box and flips it. The result is a tail. Determine the probability that neither Al nor Bo removed the...

You have 3 coins that look identical, but one is not a fair coin. The probability the unfair coin show heads when tossed is 3/4, the other two coins are fair and have probability 1/2 of showing heads when tossed. You pick one of three coins uniformly at random and toss it n times, (where n is an arbitrary fixed positive integer). Let Y be the number of times the coin shows heads. Let X be the probability the coin...

Consider an experiment in which three different coins (say a penny, a nickel, and a dime in that order) are tossed and the sequence of heads and tails observed. For each of the following pairs of events, A and B, give the subset of outcomes that defines the events and state whether the pair of events are mutually exclusive, collectively exhaustive, neither or both. (a) A: The penny comes up heads. (b) A: The penny comes up heads. B: The...

Conditional probability You have two coins in your pocket. One is a regular coin and the other is a weighted coin that has a 75% chance of landing heads up. You can’t tell the coins apart by inspecting them. You take a coin out of your pocket and toss it. It lands heads up. a. What is the probability that the coin is the fair coin? b. How many times would you decide to flip the coin before you are...
