Suppose you flip an unfair coin 4 times. It is weighted so that it comes up Heads 75% of the time. a) Either by using the formula or the binomial chart, fill in the following probability distribution, in which ? is the number of times the coin was Heads. b) Sketch the histogram for this distribution. Note that the graph peaks at ? = 3. Why does that make sense – what’s special about 3?
