Someone flips five coins, but you don’t see the outcome. The person reports that no tails are showing. What is the probability that the person flipped 5 heads?

0.03125 = 3.125% probability that the person flipped 5 heads

Step-by-step explanation:

For each coin, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it was heads, or it was tails. The result of a coin toss is independent of other coin tosses. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

In which is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

And p is the probability of X happening.

Five coins:

This means that n = 5.

Fair coin:

Equally as likely to be heads or tails, so p = 0.5.

What is the probability that the person flipped 5 heads?

This is P(X = 5).

0.03125 = 3.125% probability that the person flipped 5 heads

i dont know

step-by-step explanation:

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24
