To create a tree diagram showing the possible sequences of coins Kamil may have selected (quarters and nickels), we would start with a single point and then branch out based on the choices he can make.

  1. Start with the initial choice where Kamil can select:

    • Q (for Quarter)
    • N (for Nickel)
  2. From each of these choices, Kamil can again select a coin:

    • If he first selects a Quarter (Q), he can either select another Quarter (Q) or a Nickel (N).
    • If he first selects a Nickel (N), he can also choose either a Quarter (Q) or a Nickel (N).

So the tree diagram would look like this:

        Start
        /   \
       Q     N
      / \   / \
     Q   N Q   N

The sequences formed would be:

  • Q, Q
  • Q, N
  • N, Q
  • N, N

In letter terms, this means the combinations can be listed as:

  1. QQ
  2. QN
  3. NQ
  4. NN
