Eve flips a biased coin 200 times. The chance of getting "Heads" is 0.35 for each coin flip. Using the probability mass function (pmf), calculate the probability (to 4 decimal places) that Eve will get at least 90 heads in the 200-coin flips. Type your answer...

Step 1
Let \( X \) be the random variable representing the number of heads Eve gets when she flips the coin 200 times. Since each flip of the coin is an independent event and the coin is biased such that the probability of getting heads is 0.35, \( X \) follows a Show more…

A biased coin has one chance in ten of landing heads. It is tossed 400 times. Estimate the probability of getting between 40 to 50 heads. (Hint: This is Normal Approximation to Binomial, application of CLT.) P(40 ≤ x ≤ 50): 0.5762 0.4525 0.4902 0.6144
