1. You toss a coin 8 times. Call heads success. If the coin is fair, the probability of success P is 0.5. What isthe probability of getting exactly 5 heads out of 8 tosses? Less than 40 heads out of 100 tosses? At least12 heads in 20 tosses? Use the Minitab functions to represent all forms of binomial distributions.

Given: A fair coin is tossed 8 times. P(success) = 0.5 n = 8 We use binomial distribution here. P(X…

A weighted coin has a 0.486 probability of landing on heads and a 0.514 probability of landing on tails. If you toss the coin 27 times, we want to know the probability of getting heads exactly 11 times.Consider a toss of heads as success in the binomial distribution.
Suppose we have a bucket of 20 balls with 10 red and 10 green. We take 5 draws and after each draw, we remove the chosen ball from the bucket before our next draw (this is called drawing without replacement). Can we use the binomial distribution to model this scenario? Why or why not?
