Respuesta :

Given:

A coin is tossed 5 times

Required:

The probability of getting all tails

Explanation:

If we toss a coin there are 2 outcomes, maybe it is a tail or a head.

so the probability of getting tail is 1/2

and as we tossed 5 times so the probability of getting all tails is

the total number of outcomes is

[tex]2^5=32[/tex]

so the probability of getting all tails is

[tex]\frac{1}{32}=0.0312[/tex]

Final Answer:

0.0312
