Sagot :
The probability of getting exactly 4 heads is 0.23.
What is the probability?
Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.
Let p represents the probability of getting head in a toss of a fair coin, so
[tex]\rm P=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\q=1-p\\\\q=1-\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\q=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
Let X denote the random variable representing the number of heads in 6 tosses of a coin.
The probability of getting r sixes in n tosses of a fair is given by,
Probability of getting 4 heads :
[tex]\rm P(X=3)=^6C_4\times \left ( \dfrac{1}{2} \right )^4 \times \left ( \dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{6-4}\\\\P(X=3)=15 \times \dfrac{1}{16} \times \left ( \dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{2}\\\\P(X=3)=15 \times \dfrac{1}{16} \times \dfrac{1}{4}\\\\= 0.23[/tex]
Hence, the probability of getting exactly 4 heads is 0.23.
