when 3 coins are tossed simultaneously write the probabilities of all the events
Answers
When three coins are tossed the total number of possible combinations are
2³ = 8.
These combinations are HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, TTH, THT, HTT, TTT.
Answer:
Possibilities of all events = 8/1 or 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution :
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 = 8\1
