how the hell I do this

#

a and b

uneven gale
#

P(T = 0) is the probability that neither of them lands butter side up

#

so whats the probability that one of the slices of buttered toast doesnt land butter side up

short orbit
uneven gale
#

uh that would technically give u the same answer

#

but id say (1-p)²

#

because the proabblities both have to add up to 1

short orbit
#

wait that was easy lol why was I panicking

uneven gale

#

how would we do b

uneven gale
#

sometimes after uve done all the hard stuff u start to overthink the easy stuff

short orbit
#

frr

uneven gale
# short orbit

for part b, u need to find all the individual probabilities

short orbit
uneven gale
#

if theyre not all equal to each other then its jot uniform discrete

short orbit
#

btw for this do we not have to multiply

#

I forgot what its called but like due to the different order it happens

uneven gale
#

ohh yeah

short orbit
#

like a then b or b then a or is this not the case

uneven gale
#

so for like P(T=1)

#

u have to multiply the answer u get by 2

#

because it could be either one that doesnt drop butter side up

short orbit
#

nvm

uneven gale
#

because theres only one way in which 2 of the slices dont fall butter side down

short orbit
#

yeah

#

so after I find all the t=0,1,2 do I make that equal to 1

#

no I make them equal to each other

#

can you find P(T=0), P(T=1) and P(T=2) in terms of p
