Question
Find the probability for the experiment of tossing a coin three times.The probability of getting exactly two tails
Step 1
The sample space is the set of all possible outcomes. For a coin toss, there are two possible outcomes: heads (H) or tails (T). So, for three coin tosses, the sample space is {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT}. This gives us a total of 8 possible outcomes. Show more…
