Question

Can Some one PLEASE help me???!!!



A coin if flipped four times and comes up heads each time. What is the probability that the next coin flip will come up heads? @jim_thompson5910

Answer 1

clue, it doesn't matter what i do with the coin, it can be flipped 1000 times and have 750 heads and 250 tails. it's still the same probability. why? because the flips are independent and you only have two options :). what do you think?

Answer 2

i think its 1:5 ratio... idk though

Answer 3

hmm ok so you assume that these flips are independent as in this is a perfect coin. the coin is not weighted in some way so as to make heads or tails more likely. no matter how many times you flip it, this fact won't change. good? :)

Answer 4

no... idk wat ur saying

Answer 5

ok so we have a coin. just a random coin. we don't know anything about it. it's just a coin. what do you think is the probability of heads?

Answer 6

1:2

Answer 7
