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.

Dividing a power of 4 by 4 is equivalent to (dividing, increasing, reducing, multiplying) the exponent by (10, 2, 1, 4).
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Dividing a power of 4 by 4 is equivalent to ( reducing,) the exponent by (1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the power of 4 be 3

4 *4*4

We divide by 4

4*4*4/4 = 4*4 = 4^2

So we removed 1 power

Notice that 3-1 =2

Let 4 be raised to any power

4^a

We divide by 4

4^a/4  we remove 1 of the powers

we are left with

4^(a-1)

So we reduce the exponent by 1

masha68 [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P(BA)=P(B)+P(A)-P(AnB)

= 0.51+0.8-0.468

=1.31-0.468

=0.842

P(BA) = 0.842
