Suppose that 10 fair coins are tossed. Find the numbers of ways of obtaining exactly 1 heads. Round the answer to the nearest whole number

Respuesta :

Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total number of coins tossed = 10

Possible outcomes to toss a coin = Head or tail

Number of possible outcomes = [tex]2^{10}=1024[/tex]

Number of ways of obtaining exactly 1 heads = [tex]{10}C_1=\dfrac{10!}{1!9!}[/tex]     [using combinations [tex]^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex] ]

=10

Hence, the numbers of ways of obtaining exactly 1 heads= 10
