What is the probability of flipping a coin and it landing on heads and rolling a die and getting a number greater than 3? A. 1/4
B. 1/16
C. 1/8
D. 1/2

Answer

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

When you flip a coin there are two possible outcomes (heads or tails) and when you roll a die there are six outcomes(1 to 6). Now when coin is tossed and a die is rolled simultaneously, (2*6) 12 possible result =

{Head,1} , {Head,2} , {Head,3} , {Head,4} , {Head,5} , {Head,6} , {Tail,1} , {Tail,2} , {Tail,3} , {Tail,4} , {Tail,5} , {Tail,6} 12 outcomes

this is the formula: v = the value of investment at the end of the time period

p = the principal amount (the initial amount invested)

r = the annual interest rate

n = the annual frequency of compounding (how many times a year interest is added)

t = the number of years the money is invested

^ means raise to the power of
