Problem 1: Unfair Coin Game

Bob, Carol, Ted and Alice take turns (in that order) tossing a coin with probability of tossing a Head, $ P (H) = p $, where $ 0 < p < 1 $. The first one to toss a Head wins the game. Calculate $ P(B) $, $ P(C) $, $ P(T) $, and $ P(A) $, the win probabilities for Bob, Carol, Ted and Alice, respectively. Also show that

  • (a) $ P (B) > P (C) > P (T ) > P (A) $
  • (b) $ P (B) + P (C) + P (T ) + P (A) = 1 $
