Answer:

1) 1 element

2) 13 elements

3) 22 elements

4) 40 elements

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Only one element will have no tails: the event that all the coins are heads.

2) 13 elements will have exactly one tile. Basically you have one element in each position that you can put a tail in.

3) There are {13 \choose 2} = 78 elements that have exactly 2 tails. From those elements we have to remove the only element that starts and ends with a tail and in the middle it has heads only and the elements that starts and ends with a head and in the 11 remaining coins there are exactly 2 tails. For the last case, there are {11 \choose 2} = 55 possibilities, thus, the total amount of elements with one tile in the border and another one in the middle is 78-55-1 = 22

4) We can have:

  • A pair at the start/end and another tail in the middle (this includes a triple at the start/end)
  • One tail at the start/end and a pair in the middle (with heads next to the tail at the start/end)

For the first possibility there are 2 * 11 = 22 possibilities (first decide if the pair starts or ends and then select the remaining tail)

For the second possibility, we have 2*9 = 18 possibilities (first, select if there is a tail at the end or at the start, then put a head next to it and on the other extreme, for the remaining 10 coins, there are 9 possibilities to select 2 cosecutive ones to be tails).

This gives us a total of 18+22 = 40 possibilities.

Describe the distribution of the data with regard to the shape, outliers, center, and spread.
Pepsi [2]
Create a frequency chart by using a bar graph as shown in the picture below. A frequency chart is used when you want to present how much of the data belongs to one group. For this problem, it specifically represents how many people belong to a time interval. The y-axis is the number of people and the x-axis is the time expressed in intervals.

As you can see visually, the shape of the distribution graph is skewed to the right, although not uniformly. This is justified because the relatively high data are situated on the far right side of the graph. Also, there are no outliers in the data because they are all pretty close to each other. No bar is obviously different from the others. The center is the median of all the data. If you create a middle line as represented by the horizontal line, the center data point is 21. You can verify this by arranging all the data points from smallest to largest, and selecting the middle data. Lastly, the spread is from the lowest value to the highest value. The lowest value is at 12 to 1 pm with 19 people. The highest value is at 4 to 5 pm with 24 people. Therefore, the spread is from 19 to 24.
