Question

Suppose you are performing an experiment to see how many heads you’ll get if you flip a coin 10 times. In 10 words or less, what is the “sample space” for this random variable? Note: this is not a math problem.

Answer 1

if One coin tossed...

succes probability of Tail = 1/2 (50% chance)

succes probability of Head = 1/2 (50% chance)

There is an 1/2 chance to get a head of a coin each time. To get 10 heads in a row, an 1/2 chance has to be multiplied for 10 times. So, the formula to complete the coin scam on the first attempt is (1/2)^10. As a result, the chance completing the coin scam on the first attempt is 1/1024.The chance completing the coin scam on the first attempt, which is to toss a coin and get 10 heads in a row, is very unlikely. When calculated, the probability of this happening is 1/1024 which is about 0.000967.
  The chance to complete the coin scam on the first attempt is 1/1024, and it means that statistically, among 1024 trials (of 10 flips in a row), 1 trial may succeed to get 10 heads in a row.

sample space no is 1024.. if coin tossed 10 times
