Question

question 3(multiple choice worth 2 points) (theoretical probability lc) when tossing a two - sided, fair coin with one side colored red and the other side colored green, determine p(green).

Explanation:

Step1: Identify total outcomes

A two - sided coin has 2 possible outcomes when tossed (either the red - colored side or the green - colored side).

Step2: Identify favorable outcomes

The favorable outcome is getting the green - colored side, and there is 1 green - colored side.

Step3: Use probability formula

The probability formula is $P(A)=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$. Here, the number of favorable outcomes is 1 and the total number of outcomes is 2. So $P(\text{green})=\frac{1}{2}$.

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2}$
