Select the correct answer. a coin is tossed 5 times in a row. what is the size of the sample space of this experiment? a. 5 b. 7 c. 10 d. 32

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of times a coin is tossed up = 5

Number of possible outcomes in a toss of a coin = 2 ( Head or a Tail)

The sample space can be calculated by calculating total number of possible outcomes in 5 tosses of the coin.

Number of outcomes in 1 toss of a coin = 2

Number of outcomes in 2 tosses of a coin = 2 × 2

Number of outcomes in 3 tosses of a coin = 2 × 2 × 2

Number of outcomes in 4 tosses of a coin = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

Number of outcomes in 5 tosses of a coin = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

⇒ Total number of outcomes = 32

Therefore, Size of the sample space = 32

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
