(ac and the outcomes are recorded. How many possible outcomes are there?

(b) How many possible outcomes if the coin is tossed.


(i) four times? (ii) five times? (iii) n times?


a) A coin is tossed three times


So possible number of outcomes=23=8


(HHH,HHT,HTH,HTT,THH,THT,TTH,TTT)


b)


i) A coin is tossed four times


So possible number of outcomes=24=16


(HHHH,HHHT,HHTH,HHTT,HTHH,HTHT,HTTH,HTTT,THHH,THHT,THTH,THTT,TTHH,TTHT,TTTH,TTTT)


ii) A coin is tossed n times


So possible number of outcomes=2n
