(1 point) Rework problem 29 from section 1.4 of your text, involving the flipping of a coin. A coin is flipped. If a heads is flipped, then the coin is flipped 5 more times and the number of heads flipped is noted; otherwise (i.e., a tails is flipped on the initial flip), then the coin is flipped 3 more times and the result of each flip (i.e., heads or tails) is noted successively. How many possible outcomes are in the sample space of this experiment?
