f. A fair coin is thrown in the air four times. If the coin lands with the head up on the first three tosses, what is the probability that the coin will land with the head up on the fourth toss? a. 0 b. 1/16 c. 1/8 d. 1/2

Respuesta :

Answer:

D. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Coin tosses are independent.  Past results don't affect future probabilities.  So the probability of getting heads on the fourth toss is still 1/2.

Answer:

D. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Flipping coin is an INDEPENDENT event, meaning that if you flip a coin before, it is NOT going to affect the outcome of the next coin flipping

Since a coin has 2 sides, so the probability is 1/2
