... corresponds to exactly one of the outcomes of the random variable ¯ X, so it is natural to assign probability 1/8 to each of these. We assign probability 0 to the other 16 outcomes. In each case, the probability ... up heads with probability p, and tails with probability q. Now suppose that this coin is tossed twice. Using a frequency interpretation of probability, it is re...
