Consider the following experiment. We draw a real number p from the range [0, 1] with uniform probability, and we let the value p be the probability of getting Heads when we toss a biased coin. We toss the biased coin a total of n times. a) Show that for an integer values of n and y, where 0 Sy <n, we have: 1. dit zº(1 – 12)-v dx n+1 (---) y = 0,1,...,n Hint: this requires repeated applications of integration by parts. 1 1 - +10 b) Show that the probability of getting y Heads in the n tosses is 11 n+1, which is independent of the value of y.
