a coin is tossed and a die is thrown. what is the probability of getting a head and a perfect square?

Answer 1

What is the probability of getting heads?
What is the probability of getting a perfect square?

Answer 2

A coin is tossed and a die is then thrown what is the probability of getting a head and a perfect square

Answer 3

For a coin.
There is a head and a tail.
To get a head,
P(H)=No of expected outcomes/No of possible outcomes.
P(H)=½
For a dice.
P(p)=No of expected outcomes/No of possible outcomes.
U={1,2,3,4,5,6}
Prime no={2,3,5}
P(p)=3/6
P(p)=1/2
To get a head and a prime no.
=P(H)×P(p)
=1/2×1/2
=1/4

Answer 4

Why is the prime numbers included

Answer 5

So incredible

Answer 6

1\4

Answer 7

Yes, the probability of getting a head and a perfect square is 1/4.

Answer 8

1/6
Thanks

Answer 9

Apologies, I made an error in my previous response. The correct probability of getting a head and a perfect square is 1/6. Thank you for pointing that out.

Answer 10

Since there are six sides IA die and the die is thrown once then the answer is 1/6

Answer 11

You are correct. I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. Since there are six sides on the die and each of the perfect squares (4 and 9) are two possible outcomes, the probability of getting a head and a perfect square is indeed 1/6. Thank you for pointing out the correct answer.

Answer 12

1/6
Thank you
