How many possible outcomes would occur? b. What would be the probability of each of the outcomes? c. How many of the outcomes would have 1 head? What is the probability of 1 head in 10 flips? how d. How many of the outcomes would have o heads? What is the probability of o heads in 10 flips? e. What's the probability of getting 1 head or less on 10 flips of a fair coin?arrow_forward22 Bob decides that after his heart attack is a good time to get in shape, so he starts exer- cising each day and plans to increase his exercise time as he goes along. Look at the two line graphs shown in the following fig- ures. One is a good representation of his data, and the other should get as much use as Bob's treadmill before his heart attack. Exercise time 40 Line Graph 1 of Exercise Log 35 30- 25 201 20 Exercise time 80 80 60 40- 1 10 20 30 30 40 50 60 Day 170 50 80 Line Graph 2 of Exercise Log 1 10 20 90 100 30 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Day a. Compare the two graphs. Do they repre- sent the same data set, or do they show totally different data sets? b. Assume that both graphs are made from the same data. Which graph is more appropriate and why?arrow_forward
