Answer:

For this case the probability of getting a head is p=0.61

And the experiment is "The coin is tossed until the first time that a head turns up"

And we define the variable T="The record the number of tosses/trials up to and including the first head"

So then the best distribution is the Geometric distribution given by:

T \sim Geo (1-p=1-0.61)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The geometric distribution represents "the number of failures before you get a success in a series of Bernoulli trials. This discrete probability distribution is represented by the probability density function:"

P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x-1} p

Let X the random variable that measures the number os trials until the first success, we know that X follows this distribution:

X\sim Geo (1-p)

Solution to the problem

For this case the probability of getting a head is p=0.61

And the experiment is "The coin is tossed until the first time that a head turns up"

And we define the variable T="The record the number of tosses/trials up to and including the first head"

So then the best distribution is the Geometric distribution given by:

T \sim Geo (1-p=1-0.61)

Bisector is simply a straight that divides the line (through which it's passing) into two equal halves. Or simply, it passes through the midpoint of any line. It may make any angle with the line through which it passes.

Perpendicular Bisector is also the same but the only difference is that it makes an angle of 90° with the line through which it passes or cuts.

Is 14 200 000 in scientific notation 1.42 10x,5
Elan Coil [88]

Yes, the rules of scientific notation are:

1. All non-zero digits are significant

2. Zeros in between non-zeros are significant.

3. Zeros to the left of the first non-zero number are NOT significant.

4. Zeros to the right of non-zero numbers are significant IF a decimal point is present.

P.S: if you need help with sig fig rounding, let me know.
