What is the probability of obtaining tails or a three?
The answer depends on what the experiment is!
The probability of getting a six on a six sided die and then getting a tails?
The probability of getting a six on a six sided die and then getting a tails is zero. There is no tails on a die.
What is the probability of obtaining tails and a three?
Assume the given event depicts flipping a fair coin and rolling a fair die. The probability of obtaining a tail is ½, and the probability of obtaining a 3 in a die is 1/6. Then, the probability of encountering these events is (½)(1/6) = 1/12.
What is the probability of obtaining four tails in five flips of a coin?
Assume the coin is fair, so there are equal amount of probabilities for the choices.There are two possible choices for a flip of a fair coin - either a head or a tail. The probability of getting a head is ½. Similarly, the probability of getting a tail is ½.Use Binomial to work out this problem. You should get:(5 choose 4)(½)4(½).(5 choose 4) indicates the total number of ways to obtain 4 tails in 5 flips.(½)4 indicates the probability of obtaining 4 tails.(½) indicates the probability of obtaining the remaining number of head.Therefore, the probability is 5/32.
What is the probability of flipping a coin ten times and getting tails six times?
