A Dime A Nickel And A Penny Are Each Tossed One Time Which Table Shows All The Possible Ways The Coins Could Land Face Up Using H For Heads And T For Tails class=

Sagot :

GIVEN:

We are told that an experiment consists of tossing a dime, a nickel and a penny, each of them once.

Required;

Select which table shows all the possible ways the coins could land face up, using H for heads and T for tails.

Step-by-step solution;

First we consider the entire sample space for the experiment, and that is all the possible outcomes for this experiment. This is shown below;

[tex]HHH,\text{ }HHT,\text{ }HTH,\text{ }THH,\text{ }TTH,\text{ }THT,\text{ }HTT,\text{ }TTT[/tex]

The second table shows the possible outcomes whereby all coins lands face up without any outcome of landing tails up, that is TTT. Tables 1, 3 and 4 shows possibilities of having a tails for every throw in one of the outcomes (that is, TTT).

Therefore table 2 is the only set of outcomes where the coins could land face up.

ANSWER:

Table 2 (second option).
