A coin is tossed ten times, with the likelihood of heads in each trial being 0.52. Let X be the number of times heads come up. What is the mean (expected value) of X? (provide one digit to the right of the decimal point)

A coin is tossed ten times, with the likelihood of heads in each trial being 0.35. Let X be the number of times heads come up. What is the standard deviation of X? (provide two digits to the right of the decimal point)
A fair coin is tossed three times. Let X be the number of heads that come up. Find the probability distribution of X X 0 1 2 3 P(X) 1/8 3/8 3/8 1/8 Find the probability of at least one head Find the standard deviation σx
A fair coin is tossed n times. Let X be the number of heads in this n toss. Given X = x, we generate a Poisson random variable Y with mean x. Find Var[Y]. Answer depends on n.
One fair coin is tossed 25 times, let X be the number of getting heads out of those 25 tossing experiments. What is the mean and variance of X? 12 and 6.25 10 and 2.5 12.5 and 6.25 12.5 and 2.5
A fair coin is tossed 20 times. Let X be the number of heads thrown in the first 10 tosses, and let Y be the number of heads tossed in the last 10 tosses. Find the conditional probability that X = 6, given that X + Y = 10.
A fair coin is tossed 20 times. Let X be the number of heads thrown in the first 10 tosses, and let Y be the number of heads tossed in the last 10 tosses. Find the conditional probability that X = 6, given that X + Y = 10.
Suppose that a coin with probability 0.7 of heads is tossed 100 times. Let X be the number of heads obtained. What is the probability of obtaining a streak of at least 15 consecutive heads in the 100 tosses?
A fair coin is tossed five times. Let X denote the number of heads. Find the variance of X.
Let random variable x represent the number of heads when a fair coin is tossed two times. a) construct a table describing probability distribution b) determine the mean and standard deviation of x (round to 2 decimal places)
In order to test whether a certain coin is fair, it is tossed ten times and the number of heads (X) is counted. Let p be the "head probability". We wish to test the null hypothesis: p = 0.5 against the alternative hypothesis: p > 0.5 at a significance level of 5%. (a) Suppose we will reject the null hypothesis when X is smaller than h. Find the value of h. (b) What is the probability of committing a type...
