Q18. A biased coin is flipped 8 times. In a single flip of the coin, the probability ofheads is 1/3 and the probability of tails is 2/3. The outcomes of the coin flips aremutually independent. What is the probability the first two flips come up heads andthe rest of the flips come up tails? (Round to four decimal places.)

The given information is that the probability of head is 1/3 and the probability of tail is 2/3.…
