Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: The sample space for tossing 2 coins is TT, TH, HT, HH and p(exactly 1 head) is 1/2. Let’s observe the experiment of tossing 2 coins. Explanation: Head(H), Tail(T) are two possible outcomes when we toss a coin.
Detailed explanation-2: -When two coins are tossed, the sample space is HH, HT, TH, TT
Detailed explanation-3: -A sample space is the set of all possible outcomes of a random experiment. When you toss a coin, there are only two possible outcomes-heads (h) or tails (t) so the sample space for the coin toss experiment is h, t .
