A coin that comes up heads with probability p is flipped n consecutive times. What is the probability that starting with the first flip there are always more heads than tails that have appeared?

(a) What is the conditional probability that exactly four Tails appear w when a fair coin is flipped six times, given that the first flip came up Heads? (I.e. the coin , then is flipped five more times with Tails appearing exactly lour times.) (b) What if the coin is biased so that the probability of landing Heads is 1/3? (Hint: The binomial distribution might be helpful here.)

Assume that a coin is flipped where the probability of coin lands "Heads" is 0.49. The coin is flipped once more. This time, the probability of obtaining the first flip's result is 0.38. The random variable X is defined as the total number of heads observed in two flips. On the other hand, the random variable Y is defined as the absolute difference between the total number of heads and the total number of tails observed in two flips. Calculate...

A fair coin is flipped independently until the first Heads is observed. Let the random variable K be the number of tosses until the first Heads is observed plus 1. For example, if we see TTTHTH, then K = 5. For k 1, 2, , K, let Xk be a continuous random variable that is uniform over the interval [0, 5]. The Xk are independent of one another and of the coin flips. LetX = Σ i Xo Find the...

Stacy and George are playing the heads or tails game with a fair coin. The coin is flipped repeatedly until either the fifth heads or the fifth tails appears. If the fifth heads occurs first, Stacy wins the game. Otherwise, George is the winner. Suppose that after the fifth flip, three heads and two tails have occurred. What is the probability that Stacy wins this game?
