Quantity B

Probability of getting exactly 3 heads

选项

A.

Quantity A is greater.



B.

Quantity B is greater.



C.

The two quantities are equal.



D.

解析

由于P(正面)=P(反面),我们可知: P(抛掷5次出现0次正面)=P(抛掷5次出现0次反面) P(抛掷5次出现1次正面)=P(抛掷5次出现1次反面) P(抛掷5次出现2次正面)=P(抛掷5次出现2次反面) P(抛掷5次出现3次正面)=P(抛掷5次出现3次反面) P(抛掷5次出现4次正面)=P(抛掷5次出现4次反面) P(抛掷5次出现5次正面)=P(抛掷5次出现5次反面) 注意,抛掷5次出现2次反面,与抛掷5次出现3次正面完全等价[若2次为反面,则其余3次必为正面] 因此,我们可得:P(抛掷5次出现2次正面)=P(抛掷5次出现2次反面)=P(抛掷5次出现3次正面) 答案:C
