Answer:
i. {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT}
ii. The probability of tossing exactly 2 tails is [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] (or 0.375)
Step-by-step explanation:
when a coin is tossed, the outcomes can either be a head or a tail. The tree diagram attached to this answer shows the display of the possible outcomes when a coin is tossed three times.
The possible outcomes when a coin is tossed three times are:
{HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT}
where; H represents the head and T represents the tail.
Pr(tossing exactly 2 tails) = [tex]\frac{number of outcome of 2 tails}{total number of outcome}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
= 0.375
The probability of tossing exactly 2 tails is [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] (or 0.375).
