A box contains three fair coins, and two trick coins that have heads on both sides.(a) What is the probability that a randomly selected coin from the box will come up heads whenflipped? (b) Suppose you randomly pick a coin from the box and flip it, and it comes up heads. What is theprobability that it’s one of the trick coins? (c) Let X be the random variable that represents the number of heads when every coin in the box isflipped. What is the probability distribution of X?

Multiple Linear Regression A nursing instructor wishes to see whether a student's grade point average and age are related to the student's score on the state board nursing examination. She selects five students and obtains the following data. Student A B D E GPAX₁ 3.2 2.7 2.5 3.4 2.2 Age x₂ 22 27 24 28 23 State board score y 550 570 525 670 490 My Solutions > a) Refer to fitlm. From its output, determine the b0, b1, and b2. Do not simply enter the values but work with objects in MATLAB. You can also search How to get the p-value as an output of fitlm on MATLAB Answers. b) Predict a student's state board score who has a GPA of 3.0 and who is 25 years old. The multiple regression equation is y = bo+b₁x₁ + b2x2. c) Obtain the Coefficient of Determination (R²) from fitlm's output. Check LinearModel. d) Obtain the F-statistic using coefTest. Its value must be the same as that of fitlm with some discrepancy due to rounding off.
