Question

use a random - number table to simulate the outcomes of tossing a quarter 12 times beginning at row 1, block 4. assume that the quarter is balanced (i.e., fair) and an even digit is assigned to the outcome heads (h) and an odd digit to the outcome tails (t). 65321 85623 10204 50218 20321 22315 98532 91972 39800 45670 20510 10451 92012 59826 35456 79289 91483 29754 45652 98653 45863 36963 15326 78952 45678 10100 91251 37041 13712 14672 o thhthhhthhhh o thhthhhththt o thhthhhthtth o thhthhhhhthh o thhthhhththh

Explanation:

Step1: Locate starting point

Start at row 1, block 4 which is 50218.

Step2: Analyze first digit

The first digit is 5 (odd), so it represents tails (T).

Step3: Analyze second digit

The second digit is 0 (even), so it represents heads (H).

Step4: Analyze third digit

The third digit is 2 (even), so it represents heads (H).

Step5: Analyze fourth digit

The fourth digit is 1 (odd), so it represents tails (T).

Step6: Analyze fifth digit

The fifth digit is 8 (even), so it represents heads (H).

Step7: Move to next number

Next number is 20321. First digit 2 (even) - H.

Step8: Second digit in 20321

Second digit 0 (even) - H.

Step9: Third digit in 20321

Third digit 3 (odd) - T.

Step10: Fourth digit in 20321

Fourth digit 2 (even) - H.

Step11: Fifth digit in 20321

Fifth digit 1 (odd) - T.

Step12: Continue process

Continuing this way for 12 digits gives the sequence THHTHHHTHTHT.

Answer:

THHTHHHTHTHT
