Let’s fix some n e {1,2,3,...}. A biased coin with probability of head p is tossed n times, and the number of heads, N1, is counted. The coin is then tossed Ni more times, and the number of heads, N2, is counted. Find the expected total number of heads, E[Ni + N2], generated by this process. The answer should depend on n and p only.

= Number of n tossed heads

![= E(N_1)+E\Big[N_2\vert N_1\Big]\\\\ & = E(N_1) + E(N_1\,p)\\\\ & = np + np.p \\\\ =np+np^2\\\\ =np(1+p)](/tpl/images/0895/0359/30f69.png)
