The required probability of the coin landing tails up at least two times is 15/16.

Given that,
A fair coin is flipped seven times. what is the probability of the coin landing tails up at least two times is to be determined.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability can be defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of events.

Here,
In the given question,
let's approach inverse operation,
The probability of all tails  = 1 / 2^7 because there is only one way to flip these coins and get no heads.
The probability of getting 1 head = 7 /2^7
Adding both the probability = 8 / 2^7
Probability of the coin landing tails up at least two times = 1 - 8/2^7
                                                                                     = 1 - 8 / 128
                                                                                     = 120 / 128
                                                                                     = 15 / 16

Thus, the required probability of the coin landing tails up at least two times is 15/16.

The median of the data set is 81. What number is missing?<br><br> 82, 87, _, 77, 70, 80, 88
mina [271]
Median is the middle number.
Rearrange the numbers to smallest to biggest.
70, 77, 80, _, 82, 87, 88
If the median of the data set is 81 the middle number needs to be 81.
So the missing number is 81.
70, 77, 80, 81, 82, 87, 88
