Let’s fix some n e {1,2,3,...}. A biased coin with probability of head p is tossed n times, and the number of heads, N1, is coun

ted. The coin is then tossed Ni more times, and the number of heads, N2, is counted. Find the expected total number of heads, E[Ni + N2], generated by this process. The answer should depend on n and p only.

Answer:

The answer is "np(1+p)".

Step-by-step explanation:

N_1 = Number of n tossed heads  

According to N_1, Y = amount of N_1 tossing heads

So, N_1~ Bin(n, p) and N_2 | N_1 ~ Bin(N_1, p)

E(N_1+N_2) & = E\Big[N_1+N_2\vert N_1\Big]\\ &

                   = E(N_1)+E\Big[N_2\vert N_1\Big]\\\\ & = E(N_1) + E(N_1\,p)\\\\ & = np + np.p \\\\ =np+np^2\\\\ =np(1+p)

For A I somehow got 41.05 but its 2.95cm can someone show me the working and what I did wrong?
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a). tan(75°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

                  = \frac{11}{k}

    k = \frac{11}{\text{tan}(75)}

    k = 2.947

    k = 2.95 cm

b). cos(52°) = \frac{16}{s}

    s = \frac{16}{\text{cos}(52)}

    s = 25.988

    s ≈ 25.99 cm

c). sin(5°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

               = \frac{16.1}{q}

    q = \frac{16.1}{\text{sin}(5)}

    q = 184.727

    q ≈ 184.73 cm
