a fair coin is tossed five times. Which sequence is more likely, HTTHHor HHHHH? Or are
they equally likely? Explain.
Solution
They are Equally Likely
Reason
This is because the Chances to get H or T = 1/2
Therefore
Chances to get HTTHH or HHHHH = (1/2)^5

a fair coin is tossed five times. Which sequence is more likely, HT.pdf

  • 1. a fair coin is tossed five times. Which sequence is more likely, HTTHHor HHHHH? Or are they equally likely? Explain. Solution They are Equally Likely Reason This is because the Chances to get H or T = 1/2 Therefore Chances to get HTTHH or HHHHH = (1/2)^5
