You have a weighted coin which lands on Heads with probability 0.17. You decide to toss it 5 times. What is the probability that the total number of times the coin lands on Heads is not a prime number

Respuesta :

Answer:

Therefore, the probability is P=0.000142.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a weighted coin which lands on Heads with probability 0.17. You decide to toss it 5 times.

We calculate the  probability that the total number of times the coin lands on Heads. We get:

[tex]P=0.17^5\\\\P=0.000142[/tex]

Therefore, the probability is P=0.000142.
