1. Use your calculator to build the discrete probability distribution for the following situation. Round probabilities to 3 decimal places. You toss a fair coin 10 times. The random variable X represents the number of heads that you get in 10 tosses. х P(X) Page 2 2. Calculate the mean from the distribution and show that it is equal to npg (the mean for a binomial distribution) 3. Use what you know about the binomial distribution to find the standard deviation for your distribution 4. What is the expected number of heads in 10 coin tosses 5. Would it be unusual (statistically speaking) to get more than 8 heads? Justify your answer.
