What would be the outcomes of tossing 2 coins once?
Two ways to think about it: 1: 25% both heads 50% one of each 25% both tails -or- 2: 25% heads/heads 25% heads/tails 25% tails/heads 25% tails/tails
Why is it called experimental probability?
It's difficult to think of a real event to which an exact probability can be assigned. We say that flipping a coin yields 'heads' with probability 1/2 but we do not know that definitely. The only way of assigning a probability in the sense of numbers of heads versus total numbers of flips is by experiment. (Be aware though that there are other interpretations of the word probability.) If I were to flip a coin 500 times and obtained 249 heads then the experimental probability of obtaining a head would be 249/500 or 0.498.
What did the math instructor think of the statistical probability conference?
There was no point in it since nothing of significance came up. It might have been useful for Students, but that would mean that the event would have to deviate from the normal. In all likelihood the speakers were biased. There was no point in it since nothing of significance came up.

How many possible outcomes would there be if thirty two coins were tossed once?
Since each coin would have the outcome with Heads and Tails: Then among the 32 coins, we can have the possible outcomes from no Heads, 1 Head, 2 Heads, ....... , 31 Heads, 32 Heads. Therefore we would have 33 outcomes.
If you had to find out about something but you knew all of your sources are biased would this be a problem?
Yes it would because you need to beliveve in other things aswell
Does anyone else see how one sided and unfair this system is set up to be?
Everyone who loses thinks the system is biased and unfair. I bet ten people would think your case came out right. It all depends on the perspective.Everyone who loses thinks the system is biased and unfair. I bet ten people would think your case came out right.

What is the probability of heads on one flip of a coin?
you would think there is a 50% chnce of it landing on heads. However due to the weight of the metal on the picture on the coin it is actually about 5009/10,000 chance it will land on heads.

Can a step parent notarize a separation agreement between step daughter and husband?
I would not think they would be able to. I believe it has to be someone that is non-biased to one side or the other.
How is twilight biased?
That would depend on what you would be saying it is biased toward. The message of the book promotes anti-feminism, child grooming, teen pregnancy, and not going to college, but that isn't necessarily bias. The main character, Bella, is biased about Edward and her relationship with Edward, and many fans are biased about the series.

Because if you forward-biased them they would always conduct, even in total darkness.

How was social ranking obtained in the Chinook tribe?
Social ranking in the Chinook tribe was typically based on a person's lineage, wealth, and achievements, as well as their ability to provide for the community. Chiefs and other influential individuals held higher social status, and their position was often inherited or earned through successful leadership and resource management. Cooperation, generosity, and demonstrating respect for the tribe's customs also played a role in determining social ranking.
What is a biased coin probability?
A biased probability is one where not every outcome has the same chance of occurring. A biased coin is one where one side, the "heads" or "tails" has a greater probability than the other of showing. A coin which has a centre of gravity closer to the tails side than the heads side would be biased in that heads is more likely to show than tails. The size of coin can have an effect on the probability of heads and tails - during the Royal Institute Christmas lectures in the 1990s demonstrating probability a large version of the pound coin was made to be able to allow the audience to see it being tossed - on the broadcast (and tape) version it landed and stayed on its edge! showing the probability of heads = tails ≠ ½; the probability of heads = probability of tails, but they are actually slightly less than ½ as the coin could land on its edge and stay there - with a standard size coin, if it lands on its edge it takes very little for the centre of gravity to shift outside the base of the edge and for the coin to fall over, but with a very large similar coin (ie one scaled up [proportionally] in lengths) it can take quite a bit before the centre of gravity goes outside the base if it lands on its edge which forces it to fall over (plus there will be a "significant" rise in the centre of gravity to do so, thus favouring stability on an edge which does not exist in the standard, small, sized version of the coin).
