A "word" is a sequence of 8 bits. Each bit is either "on" or "off at any given time. Twenty 8-bit words are stored, and a power surge is induced. let x denote the number of bit reversals that result per word. assume that x is binomially distributed with n=8 and p unknown.. These data result: 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 2 1 1 0 1 0 2 2 3 0.
a) Find an unbiased estimate for p.
b) A data line utilizes 64 bits. Based on the estimate for p just found, approximate the probability that at most one bit reversal will occur.
