Question

Exercise 2.7. Consider an unfair coin with probability p of heads.
(a) The coin has been tossed (a deterministic number) n times. Denote by X
the number of heads among the n tosses and by Y the number of tails. Show
that X and Y are dependent.
Poisson(A).
(b) The coin has been tossed (a random number) N times where N -
Denote by X the number of heads among the N tosses and by Y the number
of tails. Show that X and Y are independent.

57. Consider a situation where there is a cost that iseither incurred or not. It is incurred only if the valueof some random input is less than a specified cutoffvalue. Why might a simulation of this situation give avery different average value of the cost incurred thana deterministic model that treats the random input asfixed at its mean? What does this have to do with the“flaw of averages”?
