If you flip a coin once what is the set of possible outcomes for this?

enless you include it landing on it's side the two possible outcomes for this are: Heads and Tails


If a coin is flipped 7 times what is the probability of landing on all tails?

each time you flip the coin, probability to end on either side is 50% (or 0.5) (we disregard landing on the side). So, to land on the same side 7 times, it is: 0.5^7


If a coin is flip 9 times and get all H What is the probability of an H on next flip?

The probability of the coin landing "head" side up is 50/50, meaning it could land "head" side up or "tail" side up. The odds of any single coin flip are always the same, no matter what happened on the previous tosses -- provided the coin is not a "double-head" (or "double-tail") "trick" coin


The probability that a coin flip will come up heads?

Assuming: (a) the coin is fair (each side is the same exact weight) (b) the chance of the coin landing in its side is eliminated (c) the coin is not acted on by any forces such as magnetism The chance of the coin displaying heads is 50%, or 1/2.


What is the probability of a flipped coin landing on its side?

The probability of a coin landing head-side down is 0.5 The probability of landing head-side up is 0.5 Did you mean to ask the probability of it landing on its edge ?


If you flip a coin what is the chance of getting tails?

A coin has two (major) sides and neither side has any more advantage than the other. 100 (percent) divided by 2 (sides) = 50 There is a 50% chance (or 1/2) of the coin landing on tails.


When a coin is flipped what is the probability that it will come up tails?

The side heads is slightly heavier giving it a greater likely hood of landing on tails.


What are the odds of flipping a coin and it landing on its side?

What is the probability of a coin landing on its side?

Prob. of Landing on one side = 0.5Prob. of Landing on the other = 0.5Therefore, Prob. of Landing on one side or the other = 0.5 +0.5 = 1:)I think you mean 'landing on its edge'. In that case it depends on the coin (some even have rounded edges).Interestingly what face a coin lands on is not exactly 50/50. Each person has an individual flipping-style which leads to a different side being preferred (not explicitly heads vs. tails but in 'landing with the same face upwards as was upwards at the beginning of the flip' vs. 'landing with the other face upwards to the way it started'). On average (with most people) the coin lands the same way up as it started more often than not (you'll have to do hundreds and hundreds of flips before you notice this).If (like me) you want to be really pedantic you would also take into account the very slight possibility that the coin won'tland at all.


If you toss a penny a nickel and a quarter how many possible outcomes?

There are technically 8 possible outcomes if you are talking about the side of the coin it lands on. Each coin has 2 possible outcomes (landing on heads and landing on tails). To figure out the number of outcomes for all the coins you multiply the outcomes for all of the coins together: 2 X 2 X 2= 8.


What does a single side of a double-sided coin or disk represent?

Two possibilities that when you flip the coin you would get heads or tails.


Is the head same way up as the eagle 1882 gold coin?

A normal coin will have the head and eagle upside down from each other. When you flip the coin top-to-bottom both sides should remain upright. When you flip from side-to-side both sides should be opposite. If your coin does not fit this description, you could have a rotated reverse mint error.
