first off, let's notice the parabola is a vertical one, therefore the squared variable is the x, and the parabola is opening upwards, meaning the coefficient of x² is positive.
let's notice the vertex, or U-turn, is at (-2, 2)
You could make a tree diagram
H T ← 1st toss
H T H T ← 2nd toss
H T H T H T H T ← 3rd toss
etc ,,, then count the combination of favorable outcomes
Using a calculator:
Total number of outcomes is
= 128
Probability of getting exactly 3 heads is found using the follow calculator feature: binompdf(7, 0.5, 3)
ANSWER: Typed into the calculator as follows binompdf(7,0.5,3)×128 = 35
