Question

You flip a fair coin. What is the probability that it shows head on

the first flip and shows tail on the second flip?

Is it dependent or independent event?

Answer 1

25%

Independent evemt

Explanation:

The posibility of it shows head on the first flip is 50%

The posibility of it shows tail on the second flip is 50%

=> The posibility of it shows head on the first flip and shows tail on the second flip is:

0.5 × 0.5 = 0.25 = 25%

Two events are independent because the result on the first flip doesn't affect the second one.
