Answer:
In tossing three coins, the sample space is given by
{HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT}
(a) Then all possible outcomes are =8
(b) Then number of possible outcomes=8
(c)Then the probability of getting at least one head=
numberoftotalpossibleoutcomes
numberofpossibleoutcomesofoneheads
=
8
3
(d)Then the probability of getting at least two heads=
numberoftotalpossibleoutcomes
numberofpossibleoutcomesoftwoheads
=
8
3
(e)Then the probability of getting no tail=
numberoftotalpossibleoutcomes
numberofpossibleoutcomesofnotail

Answer:
when three coins tossed together;hhh,ttt,thh,hth.hht,htt,tht,tth(8 outcomes)
a)p(two heads)=3/8
b)p(least two heads)=1/2
c)p(one head and tail)=6/8=3/4
d)p(no tail)=1/8
hope that helps u mark me as brainliest
