Step-by-step explanation:

You can't expect to get exactly 2500 out of 5000 tosses more than a few times . You will come pretty close, but that's only good in horseshoes.

Of course I'm answering this on the basis of a computer language and not actually performinig this a million tmes, each part of a million consisting of 5000 tosses.

Simulations and not completely unbiased, but based on experience, 5000 is a very small number and getting 2500 more than a couple of times is unlikely

<h2> ANSWER:</h2>

The probability of flipping a coin

coming up heads and tails is 1/2. 

So, toss 5000 times 5000/2= 2500

 heads: 2500

 tails : 2500

Multiply. Express your answer in simplest form.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Bet

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s a simple one to write. There are many trios of integers (x,y,z) that satisfy x²+y²=z². These are known as the Pythagorean Triples, like (3,4,5) and (5,12,13). Now, do any trios (x,y,z) satisfy x³+y³=z³? The answer is no, and that’s Fermat’s Last Theorem.

On the surface, it seems easy. Can you think of the integers for x, y, and z so that x³+y³+z³=8? Sure. One answer is x = 1, y = -1, and z = 2. But what about the integers for x, y, and z so that x³+y³+z³=42?

That turned out to be much harder—as in, no one was able to solve for those integers for 65 years until a supercomputer finally came up with the solution to 42. (For the record: x = -80538738812075974, y = 80435758145817515, and z = 12602123297335631. Obviously.)
