Question

A coin is flipped. If a heads is flipped, then the coin is flipped 5 more times and the number of heads flipped is noted; otherwise (i.e., a tails is flipped on the initial flip), then the coin is flipped 4 more times and the result of each flip (i.e., heads or tails) is noted successively. How many possible outcomes are in the sample space of this experiment?

Answer 2

I don't know this sorry...

Answer 3

its ok

Answer 4

Number of outcomes are there when we
toss 1 time = 2^1 = 2
toss 2 times = 2^2 = 4
toss 3 times = 2^3 = 8
toss 4 times = 2^4 = 16
toss 5 times = 2^5 = 32

Then complete the following tree diagram:
