If I toss each coin once, what is the probability that at least one of the coins will come up tails?

Respuesta :

Answer:0.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are two coins one is fair and another is bent

Probability of getting a head on fair coin is 0.5

Probability of getting a head on bent coin is 0.75

If both coins are tossed once

probability of getting at least one of the coin will come up tails is

[tex]P=1-P(both\ heads)[/tex]

[tex]P=1-0.5\times 0.75[/tex]

[tex]P=1-0.375[/tex]

[tex]P=0.625[/tex]
