    Undergrad Probability of θ-Ω-θ-Ω-θ Sequence

    Oh and I made a mistake..those probabilities should add up to 1.

    Undergrad Probability of θ-Ω-θ-Ω-θ Sequence

    is it possible then that the answer is (0.3)^2 because the letters in the middle do not really matter? This is just me guessing but if the stuff in the middle doesn't matter then we can simply treat the whole problem as if it were a sequence of two?

    Undergrad Probability of θ-Ω-θ-Ω-θ Sequence

    glad you got the reference! But not so glad I have to construct a tree to solve this problem...

    Undergrad Probability of θ-Ω-θ-Ω-θ Sequence

    Given three characters that have a specific probability assigned to each of them: Ω: .2 θ: .3 β: .4 What is the probability of having, say a sequence of 6 of these characters where the first and last character is a θ?
