Since coin is fair so probability of getting a head in a single trial is 0.5. Here X will have binomial distribution with parameters n=10 and p=0.5.
That is

Sample size is 40. Using CLT will have
approximately normal distribution with mean
and variance
So,
conducts an experiment in which they tip a coin 10 times and count of heads. Let the random represent varlable X represent the number of heads. Write the distribution of x In a class of 40 studen...
A fair coin is tossed four times and let x represent the number of heads which comes out a. Find the probability distribution corresponding to the random variable x b. Find the expectation and variance of the probability distribution of the random variable 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)
An experiment consists of tossing a coin 6 times. Let X be the random variable that is the number of heads in the outcome. Find the mean and variance of X.
Conduct the random experiment of flipping a coin five times. Let X be the number of heads. (a) Compute P(X > 3). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (b) Compute E(X).
One gambler flips a fair coin in three separate times. Letting a random variable X represent his winnings in the following way: He loses $1 if he gets no heads in three flips; he wins $1, $2, and $3 if he obtains 1, 2, or 3 heads, respectively. (a) Find the probability mass function of X. (b) Find the probability density function of X. (c) Find the cumulative distribution function of X. (d) Find the probability that he wins more...
let x be the random variable that represent the lenght of time it takes a student to complete maths 23 exam. it was found that x has an approximately normal distribution with mean 1.5 hours and standard deviation =025 hours. (a) what is the probability that it takes at least 1.4 hours for a randomly selected student to complete the exam? (b) suppose 25 students are selected at random,what is the probability that the mean time x of completing the...
Let the random variable x represent the number of girls in a family with three children. Assume the probability of a child being a girl is 0.31. The table on the right describes the probability of having x number of girls. Determine whether the table describes a probability distribution. If it does, find the mean and standard deviation. Is it unusual for a family of three children to consist of three girls? 0 1 2 3 P(x) 0.329 0.443 0.199...
In-class worksheet - Binomial distribution Date: 1. Which of the following situations describe a Binomial random variable? (a) Let X be the number of tosses of a fair coin until you obtain a head. (b) The probability of a girl having black hair is 0.6. There are 6 girls altogether. Let X be the number of girls out of the 6 who have black hair. (c) Among 6 girls, there are two with black hair. You pick 4 girls at...
