Probability Mass Function for a Bernoulli Experiment with 10 Coins - Prof. Richard B. Sowe, Quizzes of Probability and Statistics

University of Illinois - Urbana-ChampaignProbability and Statistics
Prof. Richard B. Sowers

The probability mass function (pmf) for a bernoulli experiment involving the tossing of 10 independent coins, where each coin has a probability of 4/5 of landing heads up. The pmf is given by the formula in the document and is used to compute the probability of getting exactly 3 heads in the experiment.
