What is the probability of obtaining twotwo headsheads in a row when flipping a​ coin? Interpret this probability.

Respuesta :

Answer with explanation:

→When a coin is tossed n, times

Total Possible outcome [tex]=2^n[/tex]

→When a coin is tossed twice ,

Total Possible outcome =2²=4={ HH, TT, HT, TH}

→Total favorable outcome , that is getting 2 heads continuously=1

or , Total favorable outcome , that is getting 2 heads continuously=1

→Probability of an event

        [tex]=\frac{\text{Total favorable outcome}}{\text{Total possible outcome}}[/tex]    

→Probability of obtaining n' heads in a row when flipping a​ coin n times

      [tex]=\frac{1}{2^{n}}[/tex]

→Probability of obtaining two heads in a row when flipping a​ coin two times

      [tex]=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
