Question

a coin is tossed 100 times and head is obtained 59 times. on tossing a coin at random, find the probability of getting (I) a head, (ii) a tail

Answer 1

1) Probability of getting a head is 59/100 (Given)

2) Probability of getting a tail is 1 - 59/100 = 41/100

Explanation:

A probability of one means that the event is certain. If you toss a coin, it will come up a head or a tail.

So there is a probability of one that either of these will happen.

A probability of zero means that an event is impossible.

Answer 2

_______________________

Some experiments related to PROBABILITY :

$\underline{ \large { \bold{Experiment:}}}$

An operation which can produce some well-defined outcomes, is called an experiment.

Each outcome is called an event.

$\underline{ \large { \bold{Random\:Experiment:}}}$

An experiment in which all possible outcomes are known and the exact outcome cannot be predicted in advance, is called a random experiment.

$\underline{ \large { \bold{Empirical \: Probability :}}}$

Suppose we perform an experiment and let $n$ be the total number of trials. The empirical probability of happening of an event E is defined as

$\mathsf{p(e) = \frac{no \: of \: trials \: in \: which \: event \: happened}{total \: number \: of \: trials}}$
