Q.

One hundred identical coins are thrown as each coin has the probability of head as p. Let X = number of coins showing heads then match the following conditions with p value.

A) P(X = 49) = P(X= 50)          1) p=12

B) P(X= 48) = P(X = 52)          2) 51101

C) P(X = r) = P(X = n – r)          3) 50101

                                                    4) 57100

The correct matching is

Detailed Solution

Let X be the number of coins showing heads then X~B (100, P)

A)     Now P(X=49)=P(X=50)

         c49  100 p49 q51=c50  100 p50 q50  c49  100 q=c50  100 P qp=c50  100c49  100          =100!50!  50!×49!  51!100! qp=49!×51×50!50×49!×50!

            qp=5150  50(1-p)=51p  50-50p=51p  50=101p  p=50101

B)     P(X=48)=P(X=52)

           c48  100 p48 q52=c52  100 p52 q48  c48  100 q4=c52  100 p4  q4p4=100!52!  48!×48!×52!100!  qp4=1  qp=1  1-p=p  2p=1  p=12

C)     P(X=r)=P(X=n-r)

          cr  100 pr qn-r=cn-r  100 pn-r qr  pr qn-rpn-r qr=cn-r  100cr  100  qpn-2r=1

As it is independent of n for every 'r' so qp=1

          q=p  1-p=p  2p=1  p=12
