A biased coin is tossed n times. The probability of heads is p and the probability of tails is q and p=2q. Choose all correct statements.

2. In your pocket is a random number N of coins, where N has the Poisson distribution with parameter . You toss each coin once, with heads showing with probability p each time. Show that the total number of heads has the Poisson distribution with parameter Ap.

Q3. Suppose we toss a coin until we see a heads, and let X be the number of tosses. Recall that this is what we called the geometric distribution. Assume that it is a fair coin (equal probability of heads and tails). What is the p.m.f. of X? (I.e., for an integer i, what is P(X=i)? What is ?[X]? ({} this is a discrete variable that takes infinitely many values.)

9.74. Suppose we toss a biased coin independently until we get two heads or two tails in total. The coin produces a head with probability p on any toss. 1. What is the sample space of this experiment? 2. What is the probability function? 3. What is the probability that the experiment stops with two heads?
A machine produces coins such that the probability of heads, p, follows a Beta distribution with...
A machine produces coins such that the probability of heads, p, follows a Beta distribution with parameters (α, β) = (1, 1). A coin produced by this machine is picked at random and tossed independently n times. Let Y be the number of heads. (a) Find E[Y]. (b) Write down the pmf for Y (your answer can include unevaluated integrals and combination numbers [aka “n choose m” symbols]).

A box contains five coins. For each coin there is a different probability that a head will be obtained when the coin is tossed. (Some of the coins are not fair coins!) Let pi denote the probability of a head when the i th coin is tossed (i = 1, . . . , 5), and suppose that p1 = 0, p2 =1/4, p3 =1/2, p4 =3/4, p5 =1. The experiment we are interested in consists in selecting at random...

There are two steps in the description of this problem. First,
toss the coin until a head appears. Then, toss the coin until a
tail appears.
It is NOT "toss a coin until a head appears" problem.
