4. Conditional Probability. We have two biased coins A and B P(Head coin A)=0.7 and P(Headcoin B)= 0.6. Patrick chooses one of the two coins randomly (assume equal probability ofchoosing) and then tosses the chosen coin repeatedly. Compute the following:a. The probability of getting a head on the 5th tossb. The probability of getting a head on the 6th toss, given that the first five tosses are heads.

Introduction: Denote A, B as the events that coin A, and coin B are tossed, respectively. For a…
