Introduction to Bernoulli Processes Bernoulli Trials and the Bernoulli Probability Formula Examples Conclusion
A Motivating Example
Some probability problems involve repeating the same experimentseveral times. For example, flipping a coin.
Example
An unfair coin with Pr[H] = 25 is flipped two times. Find the
probability of exactly one Heads.
Example
The same unfair coin as in the previous example is flipped threetimes. Find the probability of exactly one Heads.
Example
The same unfiar coin as in the previous examples is flipped fourtimes. Find the probability of exactly one Heads.

Introduction to Bernoulli Processes Bernoulli Trials and the Bernoulli Probability Formula Examples Conclusion
Making the Process More Complicated
Example
Now suppose that you flip the coin four times and wish to find theprobability of getting exactly two heads. What about gettingexactly three heads? Exactly four heads?
Note:
A pattern emerges when we repeat the same action, flipping thecoin, multiple times. The Bernoulli Probability Formula gives us away to quickly compute such probabilities.

Introduction to Bernoulli Processes Bernoulli Trials and the Bernoulli Probability Formula Examples Conclusion
Bernoulli Trials
In order to apply the Bernoulli Probability Formula, we need torepeat a certain type of action multiple times.
Bernoulli Trial
A Bernoulli Trial is an action which:
There are only two possible outcomes (success and failure).
The action is independent of previous results.
The probability of a success is constant.
Bernoulli Process
A Bernoulli Process if n Bernoulli Trials in which the probability ofa success is p yields the probability formula:
Pr[ r successes ] = C (n, r)(p)r (1− p)n−r
![Page 12: MATH 105: Finite Mathematics 8-2: The Binomial …math.wallawalla.edu/~duncjo/courses/math105/winter06/slides/finite...Introduction to Bernoulli Processes Bernoulli Trials and the](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020315/5aa402097f8b9a185d8b629a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

1 Bernoulli processes require:1 the same process is repeated2 only two possible outcomes for each trial3 trials are independent of each other4 probability of a sucess does not change
2 Pr[ r successes ] = C (n, r)(p)r (1− p)n−r

Next Time. . .
Next time we will cover our last section dealing with probability.This section covers expected value. An example of expected valueis answering the question: “if you roll a die many times, over thelong run, what will the average value be?”
For next time
