Which of the following arguments are correct and which are not correct? Give reasons for your answer.(i) If two coins are tossed simultaneously there are three possible outcomes two heads, two tails or one of each. Therefore, for each of these outcomes the probability is 1/3(ii)if a die is thrown, there are two possible outcomes, an odd no. or an even no. Therefore ,the probability of getting an odd no. is 1/2.

Explanation

(i) Here, Sample space, `S = {P(H,H),P(T,T),P(H,T),P(T,H)}`

So, `n(S) = 4`

Thus, `P(H,H) = 1/4`

`P(T,T) = 1/4`

`P(H,T) = 2/4 = 1/2`

`P(T,H) =2/4 = 1/2`

That means, first argument is incorrect.
