Answer:
P(heads on first time ) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
P(tails on last flip) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
when Percival flips coin several times and record the result.
so every time he tosses coin there is probability of getting heads or tails is
P(heads) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
and for tails
P(tails) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
so, probability of getting heads while tossing coin first time is equal to
P(heads on first time ) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
again, probability of getting tails while tossing coin for last time is equal to
P(tails on last flip) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
