Three coins are tossed.
Using H to indicate heads and T to indicate tails, give the following. (To indicate that the first coin is tails, the second coin is tails, and the third coin is heads enter TTH. Express the answer as a comma-separated list.)
a. the sample space S
b. the event E that exactly two are heads
c. the event F that at least two are heads
d. the event G that all three are heads
Give the p(E), p(F), p(G), o(E), o(F), o(G), where p(X) indicates probability of event X, and o(X) indicates odds for event X.
