You can put this solution on YOUR website! a)If you flipped a fair coin 6 times and got 6 heads, what would be the probability of getting a head on the next toss? Enter your answers as fractions.
Since the results of the flips are independent, P(head) = 1/2
--------------------------------
b. If you rolled a fair die 7 times and got only the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, what would be the probability of rolling a 6 on the next turn? Enter your answers as fractions.
Since the results of the flips are independent, P(x = 6) = 1/6
