What is the probability of getting two head and one tail if a coin is tossed 3 times?
the probability of getting one head and one tail on three flips of a coin is 1/9
What is the probability that you toss a head or a tail?
Assuming a two-sided coin, and that you make the the toss, the probability of tossing a head or a tail is 100%. The probability of tossing a head is 50%. The probability of tossing a tail is 50%.
If you toss a coin 1000 times and find that it comes up head 532 times what is the probability of getting a tail?
The probability is still 50%
If two events are mutually exclusive what is the probability that both occur at the same time?
The probability is 0. Consider the event of tossing a coin . The possible events are occurrence of head and tail. they are mutually exclusive events. Hence the probability of getting both the head and tail in a single trial is 0.
How do theoretical probability and experimental probability relate?
Take for example, flipping a coin. Theoretically, if I flip it, there is a 50% chance that I flip a head and a a 50% chance that I flip a tail. That would lead us to believe that out of 100 flips, there should theoretically be 50 heads and 50 tails. But if you actually try this out, this may not be the case. What you actually get, say 46 heads and 54 tails, is the experimental probability. Thus, experimental probability differs from theoretical probability by the actual results. Where theoretical probability cannot change, experimental probability can.
What is the theoretical probability of getting one head and one tail?
The theoretical probability of getting one head and one tail is 50%
What is an example of theoretical probability?
The probability that a flipped coin has a probability of 0.5 is theoretical in that it assumes the existence of a perfect coin. The same can be said of the probabilities of the spots appearing on a single tossed die which requires the existence of a perfect die. Here's an example. Consider tossing a coin twice to see what comes up. It could be tail, head, or head tail, or tail, tail or head, head. The theoretical probability of two heads is one in four. In general, theoretical probability is the ratio of the number of times a possible outcome can occur in a given event to the number of times that event occurs.
What is a biased coin in probability?
Probability of getting a head or tail is not equal
What is the probability of getting two head and one tail if a coin is tossed 3 times?
the probability of getting one head and one tail on three flips of a coin is 1/9
Probability of getting both head and tail simultaneously when a coin is tossed?
The probability is 50-50.
What is the probability that you toss a head or a tail?
Assuming a two-sided coin, and that you make the the toss, the probability of tossing a head or a tail is 100%. The probability of tossing a head is 50%. The probability of tossing a tail is 50%.
What is probability of getting tail on a coin?
1/2. There is an equal chance of the coin falling head up or tail up.
What is probability of getting head or tail when tossing a coin?
The probability of getting a head or a tail is, for all practical purposes, equal to 1. The only other possibility is that the coin stands on its edge - technically possible but so very unlikely that it can safely be ignored.
What is probability of getting head and tail alternatively in three throws of a coin?
If you mean 1: head 2:tail 3:head the probability is 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8. If you mean only that you want the heads and tails to alternate, that is, you mean the above or tail, head , tail, the probability is 1/8 + 1/8 = 1/4.
If you toss a coin 1000 times and find that it comes up head 532 times what is the probability of getting a tail?
The probability is still 50%
What is the probability of flipping three coins and getting one head followed by one tail by one head?
1/8 or 12.5%
If two events are mutually exclusive what is the probability that both occur at the same time?
The probability is 0. Consider the event of tossing a coin . The possible events are occurrence of head and tail. they are mutually exclusive events. Hence the probability of getting both the head and tail in a single trial is 0.
