Question 1081127: Please help me solve the following problem.
An unbiased coin is tossed twice. If the probability of getting a head (H) after a toss is 0.5 and that of getting a tail (T) is 0.5
What is the probability that the two tosses result in HT or TH combination? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Probability of HT is (1/4) and probability TH is also (1/4). The total probability is 1/2.
There are 4 outcomes 1--2--1, 1 with 2 heads, 2 with one head, 1 with 2 tails.
