45 sequences. Make it easier and think what are the 2 tail flips. They are: 1-2; 1-3;1-4...1-10. That is 9 sequences starting with 1. There are 9 sequences starting with 2, 9 starting with 3, etc, up to 10. That makes 90 sequences, but since 1-2 is the same as 2-1, ie order doesn't matter, divide that in half to get 45.

Ten pennies lined up in a line can show the same number of heads/tails patternsas the highest binary number you can count to with ten bits.That's 1,024 .
Knowing the results in advance, there is a 7/10 chance that the first toss is heads. In this case "seven out of ten" is quite literal. The first toss is one of the 10, and 7 of them came up heads, so 7/10 is the chance that this particular one is one of the heads.
Ten of them.
