Q4. One evening, Bob think that he wants to buy a game. So, he decided to toss a coinwhether he should buy this or not. But as he wanted to buy the game badly so he thoughtwhy not try a biased coin. So, he flips the coin and thought if it's head then he will buy ifnot then he won't. Here, the head is 3 times as likely as occur as tail and the coin istossed thrice.(a) Find the probability distribution of number of tails.(b) Now, if the coin is toss 10 times then find what is the probability of getting at least2 heads.

Given: Number of trials (n) = 3 Probability of tail (p) = 14=0.25 Probability of tails = 1 - 0.25…

Answered: Q4. One evening, Bob think that he…

You are heading to the LLN Casino and plan to play their world famous slot machine. The slot machine at the LLN Casino has three independent wheels that spin when you pull the lever. When pulled, each wheel spins and stops on one of the symbols. Assume that the outcome of each wheel is independent of the outcomes of the other 2 wheels. SEOT co rOR JACKPUT JACKPOT BALL BAR 7 Each wheel has 10 equally likely symbols: 4 Skulls, 3 Lemons, 2 Cherries, and 1 Bell. One symbol appears on each wheel (3). If you play, what is the probability that: You get at least one skull ? Report your answer to 3 decimal point accuracy. (e.g. 0.201) Do not report as a percent.
You are running a race, where you will run from one end of a 100 meters long field to another. In between, there are two hurdles you need to jump. One hurdle is 20 meters from the starting end, and the other hurdle is 50 meters from the starting end. You can jump the first hurdle on any given try with probability 0.8. You can jump the second hurdle on any given try with probability 0.6. It takes you 1 second per meter of running. So if you succeeded in jumping both hurdles you would make it in 100 seconds. Any time you don’t successfully jump a hurdle you start over. What is the expected time it takes you to finish the race? (Hint: Condition on what happens in your first attempt at running the race)
A Dinner Club goes out to eat once a week. It visits three kinds of restaurants, Asian, Mediterranean, and Mexican, but they never visit the same type of restaurant two weeks in a row. If they go to an Asian restaurant one week then they are equally likely to go to a Mediterranean as a Mexican the next week. If they go to a Mediterranean restaurant one week then they are two times as likely to to go to an Asian as a Mexican the next week. If they go to a Mexican restaurant one week then they are three times as likely to go to an Asian as a Mediterranean the next week. If we think of this as a Markov Chain in which state 1 is Asian, state 2 is Mediterranean, and state 3 is Mexican, then what is the transition matrix? w - - - /2 ½ (A) (B) 2 1 2/3 (C) 1/2 (D) 1/2 1 % 1½½ 0 1/3 1 1 2 2 (E) 2/2 0 3 (F) 22 1 ½ /3 (G) 1/2 (H) A O D O E OF G
Bill and Chris are playing a game that involves a spinner. They have observed the following facts about the numbers on the spinner. (1) The four numbers on the spinner are equally likely. (2) They are all different and are positive integers. (3) The smallest number you can get with two spins of the spinner is 2, and the largest is 14. (4) The remaining numbers, when added together give 8. (5) It is impossible to get an odd number if you spin the spinner twice and add the results. Draw the spinner indicating the four numbers.
In a football match, there is a new striker on the Juventus side. The probability that the new striker will score goal today is three times higher than scoring none. Rakin and his friends are watching this match. Rakin tells his friends that the new striker is left footed as he read about him in an article; but, some friends are not believing him. The match is about to start and on the screen there is a note saying opponent defenders of Juventus are strong against right footed strikers. So, the probability of the striker being left footed will be five times higher if the striker scores a goal than scoring none. When match started, Rakin and his friends saw that the new striker is left footed. What is the probability that the striker will score today?
A vending machine contains 1000 lollipops. Some of the lollipops are red, and the others are blue. You don’t know how many there are of each color. However, you do know that these two alternatives are equally likely. There are 900 blue lollipops and 100 red ones. There are 500 blue lollipops and 500 red ones. When you put a coin into the vending machine, it gives you a lollipop, chosen at random. Suppose that it gives you a blue lollipop. What is the probability that there are 900 blue lollipops and 100 red ones? Show how you got the answer.
There are three closed boxes one of which contains a prize. If Joe correctly guesseswhich box has the prize in it he wins the prize. He chooses a box and then one of theremaining two boxes is revealed to be empty. Joe is then given the option to change hismind and choose the other box which is still closed. What is the probability of his winningthe prize if he changes his mind?
