Example of a Random Procedure with Specified Events
Example 1:Tossing a coin twice will result in the following four events: (T, T), (T, H), (H, T), (H, H).
Obviously, all events are mutually incompatible, only one of them can occur as a result of an experiment "tossing a coin twice."

Explanations for Various Probability Questions
98876 Explanations for Various Probability Questions Question D
An experiment consists of tossing an ordinary coin five times. Recall that an experiment can produce one or more sample spaces depending on what we consider our outcome to be.

Probability Experiment, Permutations, Combinations
(1) In a probability experiment (random experiment) an outcome is one of the several possible results of the experiment.
For example, when a fair coin is tossed once, the possible outcomes are {head, tail}.

Probability:Coin Flips, Choice of Outfits, Color Combination
2.A fair coin is flipped five times and the outcomes are recorded. What is the probability that exactly half of the outcomes were tails?
3.A fair coin is flipped four times and the outcomes are recorded.

Probability: Tossing an Unfair Coin
544871 Probability: Tossing an Unfair Coin Suppose an unfair coin comes up heads 65.2% of the time if it is flipped. If the coin is flipped 14 times, what is the probability that:
a) it comes up tails exactly 6 times?

Probabilities
Given that Z is a standard normal random variable, what is the value of Z if the area to the left is Z is 0.9382? Exhibit 1.5
A statistical experiment involves flipping a coin that is much thicker than a regular coin of the same diameter.

Methods and Random Variables
That is, x > 0.
3) The random variable is continuous since it can assume any value greater than 0. The expert lists the experimental outcomes for tossing a coin twice.
-
A coin was flipped 60 times and came up heads 38 times
To determine whether or not we may reject our null hypothesis, we first determine the expected values of the experiment: this is the number of heads and number of tails you would expect to get from a fair coin flipped sixty times.

A word Problem.
Explain what outcomes of an experiment are. What does it mean to have equally likely outcomes? Provide examples to illustrate.
Solution:
Outcomes of an experiment are the results of any performed experiment.

Analyzing a Probability Experiment
Suppose you perform a probability experiment in which you toss a fair coin and then roll a fair number cube with the faces labeled with numbers 1 through six.
a. Draw a tree diagram to show all of the outcomes for this experiment.
