(c) The probability that at least one head is observed in three tosses is 0.875.

(d) The expected value of X is 1.5.

(e) The standard deviation of X is 2.121.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is: A fair coin is tossed three times. Let X be the number of heads observed in three tosses of this fair coin.

(a) Find the probability distribution of X.

(b) Find the probability that two or fewer heads are observed in three tosses. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(c) Find the probability that at least one head is observed in three tosses. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(d) Find the expected value of X. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

(e) Find the standard deviation of X. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Now, firstly the sample space obtained in three tosses of a fair coin is given as;

Sample Space (S) = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, TTH, THT, TTT}

(a) The Probability distribution of X is given below;

   Number of Heads (X)         P(X)                          

              0                               = 0.125            0                           0

              1                                 = 0.375         0.375                     0.375  

              2                               = 0.375         0.75                          3

              3                               = 0.125          0.375                    3.375

           Total                                                    1.5                        6.75          

(b) The probability that two or fewer heads are observed in three tosses is given by = P(X 2)

      P(X 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

                     = 0.125 + 0.375 + 0.375

                     = 0.875

(c) The probability that at least one head is observed in three tosses is given by = P(X 1)

      P(X 1) =  1 - P(X = 0)

                    =  1 - 0.125

                    =  0.875

(d) The expected value of X = E(X) =  

                                                              =  1.5

(e) The Variance of X = V(X) =

                                      =  

                                      =    = 4.5

Now, Standard deviation of X =

                                                  =  = 2.121.

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq
