An experiment consists of flipping a coin and then rolling a die What is the probability of observing a head on the coin or a 3 on the die?
The probability of flipping a Head is the same as that for a Tail and is 1/2 or 50%. The probability of rolling a particular number on a die is 1/6 since there are 6 numbers. Combining these two probabilities (by multiplication) we have, as the combined probability 1/2 x 1/6 = 1/12 = 0.0833333333333333(the 3 recurs) which as a percentage is 8.33333333333%
What else can I help you with?
What is the probability of rolling a 3 and flipping a head?
probability of rolling a 3 = 1/6 probability of flipping a head = 1/2 therefore, overall = 1/12
What is the probability of flipping heads on the coin?
The probability of flipping Heads on a coin is 1 - a certainty - if the coin is flipped often enough. On a single toss of a fair coin the probability is 1/2.
How do you find experimetal probability?
Experimental probability is calculated by taking the data produced from a performed experiment and calculating probability from that data. An example would be flipping a coin. The theoretical probability of landing on heads is 50%, .5 or 1/2, as is the theoretical probability of landing on tails. If during an experiment, however, a coin is flipped 100 times and lands on heads 60 times and tails 40 times, the experimental probability for this experiment for landing on heads is 60%, .6 or 6/10. The experimental probability of landing on tails would be 40%, .4, or 6/10.
What is the probability of flipping a quarter and getting heads and rolling a die and getting a 6?
The probability of flipping a quarter and getting heads is 1 in 2. the probability of rolling a die and getting 6 is 1 in 6.
Is it possible to repeat an experiment with the same number of trials in each and get a different experimental probability for each experiment?
yes because a quarter has 2 sides but flipping it you dont have a 100%chance if it lands on the same side
An experiment consists of flipping a fair coin and rolling a fair die How many possible outcomes have a head and an odd number?
3 of them.
What is the probability of rolling a 3 and flipping a head?
probability of rolling a 3 = 1/6 probability of flipping a head = 1/2 therefore, overall = 1/12
What is the probability of flipping heads on the coin?
The probability of flipping Heads on a coin is 1 - a certainty - if the coin is flipped often enough. On a single toss of a fair coin the probability is 1/2.
What is the probability of flipping heads?
50-50
If you alternate between flipping a coin and rolling a die what is the probability of rolling a 2 before flipping a heads?
The probability of rolling a 2 on a die before flipping a heads on a coin is 1 in 12. The probability of rolling a 2 is 1 in 6. The probability of flipping heads is 1 in 2. Since these are sequentially unrelated events, you simply multiply the probabilities together.

What is an experiment in math?
There are many different types of mathematical experiments in math, but the most easy one I can think of would be the Experimental Probability. Example: Flipping a coin and recording your answers to see the actual probability of landing on heads or tails.
What is the probability of getting exactly 2 heads by flipping 3 coins?
The probability is 0.375
What is the probability of flipping a quarter and getting heads and rolling a die and getting a 6?
The probability of flipping a quarter and getting heads is 1 in 2. the probability of rolling a die and getting 6 is 1 in 6.
What is an example of a bernoulli trial?
Flipping a coin is an example of a Bernoulli trial. It is an experiment with two possible outcomes (heads or tails) and has a constant probability of success (0.5) for each trial.
Is it possible to repeat an experiment with the same number of trials in each and get a different experimental probability for each experiment?
yes because a quarter has 2 sides but flipping it you dont have a 100%chance if it lands on the same side
What is the probability of flipping three tails when three coins are flipped?
The probability of flipping three tails with three coins is (1 in 2)3 or 1 in 8 or 0.125.
