This may prove to be somewhat tricky.) Suppose that we have 10 coins, which are weighted so thatwhen flipped theith coin shows h

eads with probabilityp=i/10 (i= 1, . . . ,10). You randomly pick onecoin, you flip it, and it shows heads.Withoutputting this coin back, you pick a second coin. What is theprobability that the second coin shows heads, given that the first coin showed heads?

Answer:

2/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of getting head on i'th coin = i/10

Probability Pr of getting head on 2nd coin (Event A) = 2 / 10

Probability Pr of getting head on 1st coin (Event B) = 1/10

Probability A given B = Pr (A/B) = Pr (A∩B) / Pr B ;

where A∩B = Pr (A & B) = Pr A X Pr B

Putting in above formula :

Pr (A/B) = <u>[(</u>1/10)x(2/10<u>)]</u>  / 1/10

= 2/10

Six different colored dice are rolled. Of interest is the number of dice that show a one. In words, define the random variable X
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Six dice (each of a different color) are rolled. Since the number of times the 6 dice were rolled isn't stated, take it to be 1.

Hence, 6 dice are rolled at once for this experiment.

Of interest is the number of dice that show a "one". In other words, the variable in question (X) is:

The number of dots that show on the upward face of the rolled dice.

The values that X may take on are:

1  2  3  4  5  6

On average, how many dice would you expect to show a one?

One die.

How is this gotten? By finding the probability that a one or one dot appears when the 6 dice are rolled at once. Since there are 6 dice in number, and each die has the same 6 faces containing dots, the probability of getting a one is 1/6. In this case, one out of 6 dice is expected to show one dot.

Find the probability that all six dice show a dot in just one toss.

Logically, this probability is going to be very small! It is almost impossible for all 6 dice to land on the same face in just a single toss. In other words, expect many decimal places in the probability figure.

1/6 divided by 6  = 0.167/6  = 0.028 approximated to three decimal places.

This would also represent the probability that 2 dots, 3 dots, or any other number of dots appears on all dice in one toss!

Is it more likely (in this experiment) that 3 or 4 dice will show a one (a single dot)?

The answer is yes! It is more likely that 3 or 4 dice (instead of all 6) will show a one or will show the same number of dots.

Kudos!
