In this experiment, the number of heads X is a binomial random variable:


X\sim B(0.5,3)

The number of heads can range from 0 to 3, so the sample space for X is {0, 1, 2, 3}.

The associated probability of each outcome correspond to the binomial probability:


P(X=k)=\binom{n}{k}p^k(1-p)^(n-k)

Then, we can calculate
