What is the probability of heads in unfair coin when you flip the coin ten times?



i came across this question and I haven't figured it out



Suppose that you flip an unfair coin ten times, where p(heads)=3/4 and p(tails)= 1/4, Find probability of



1.p(no heads)

2.p(exactly 9 heads)

3.p(exactly 7 heads)

4.p(at least 7 heads)

5.p(number of heads greater than number of tails)


i hop this help



Thanks

Have a look at the binomial distribution.




  1. Probability of no heads:
    $$bigg(frac{1}{4}bigg)^{10}$$

  2. Exactly one head:
    $$binom{10}{9},bigg(frac{1}{4}bigg)bigg(frac{3}{4}bigg)^9$$

  3. Exactly seven heads:
    $$binom{10}{7},bigg(frac{1}{4}bigg)^3bigg(frac{3}{4}bigg)^7$$

  4. At least seven heads:
    $$binom{10}{7},bigg(frac{1}{4}bigg)^3bigg(frac{3}{4}bigg)^7 + binom{10}{8},bigg(frac{1}{4}bigg)^2bigg(frac{3}{4}bigg)^8 + binom{10}{9},bigg(frac{1}{4}bigg)bigg(frac{3}{4}bigg)^9 + bigg(frac{3}{4}bigg)^{10}$$

  5. Number of heads greater than number of tails:
    same idea as in the previous case but starting at 6 heads.
