Answer:

The probability of tails coming up is $\dfrac{3}{5}$

D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose a coin has been altered so that the probability of heads coming up is 2/5.

A coin has two possibility either head or coin.

We are given probability of heads coming up is 2/5

$P(H)=\dfrac{2}{5}$

The sum of probability of all value is 1.

$P(H)+P(T)=1$

$\dfrac{2}{5}+P(T)=1$

$P(T)=1-\dfrac{2}{5}$

$P(T)=\dfrac{3}{5}$

Hence, The probability of tails coming up is $\dfrac{3}{5}$

Let x and y be independent each uniformly distributed on {1,2,...,n} find p(x < y )

bulgar [2K]

If we draw the contingency table of x (vertical) against y (horiz.), we have a square.
For n=4, we have (legend: < : x<y = : x=y > : x>y

y 1 2 3 4
x
1 = < < <
2 > = < <
3 > > = <
4 > > > =

We see that there are n(n-1)/2 cases of x<y out of n^2.
Therefore,
p(x<y)=n(n-1)/(2n^2)=(n-1)/(2n)

However, if the sample space is continuous, it will be simply p(x<y)=1/2.
