A coin is tossed three times in succession. If is the event that there are at least two heads and is the event in which first throw is a head, then
Explanation for the correct answer:
Step 1: Find the sample space and possible set of outcomes for given events.
We have been given that a coin is tossed three times.
Also, we have been given two events.
: there are at least two heads
: the first throw is a head
Step 2: Find the probability of each event.
and the probability of the event F would be,
Step 3: Find the required probability using the formula .
Now, the required probability would be,
Hence, if is the event that there are at least two heads and is the event in which the first throw is a head, then
Therefore, option (A) is the correct answer.
