HELP PLEASE! MEDAL! @dan815 @TheSmartOne @confluxepic
Find the probability if six coins are tossed. P(3 heads and 3 tails)
do you have choices? If so which do you think it is
No choices.
@dan815 @iambatman Can someone please help me? I have to take a test on this tomorrow.
im guessing that the probability that you will get 3 heads out of 6 tosses is 3/6 and the probability of 3 tails is 3/6 unless its one of those questions where its either and/or if it was then in this case the probability of heads AND tails isnt possible
Sorry, but I'm gonna need a more definite explanation that that. Thanks for trying though.
Its okay I totally understand I just wanted to give some kind of help
okay so you are going to have 64 possible outcomes correct?
you take the number of sides to the coin (2) and raise it to the number of coins being flipped (6) which is 64, so first that is what your probability is going to go over
Thanks, but I got the answer by myself. It's 5/16
Which would actually be 20/64, which actually kinda fits what I did. So thx @Abaker32
okay, you can also use the Bernoulli Trial Formula for probability problems like this if you know what it is
What's that?
