Question 5: Suppose that a coin is tossed four times and the side showing face up on each toss is noted. Suppose also that on each toss heads and tails are equally likely. Let HHHT indicate the outcome heads on the first three tosses and tails on the fourth, THTT the outcome tails on the first, third and fourth tosses and heads on the second, and so forth. a. List the sixteen elements in the sample space whose outcomes are all the possible head-tail sequences obtained in the four tosses. b. Write each of the following events as a set and find its probability: i. event that exactly one toss results in a head ii. The event that at least two tosses result in a head. iii. The event that no head is obtained.
