This is a binomial distribution question with
n = 3
p = 0.5
q = 1 - p = 0.5
where
1) Sample space = {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, TTH, THT, THH, TTT}
4) P(odd number of head) = P(heads = 1) + P(heads = 3)
P(odd number of heads) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 3)
P(odd number of heads) = 0.375 + 0.125
P(odd number of heads) = 0.5
5) P(all heads or all tails) = P(heads = 3) + P(heads = 0)
P(all heads or all tails) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 0)
P(all heads or all tails) = 0.375 + 0.125
P(all heads or all tails) = 0.5
6) P(Exactly two heads or exactly 2 tails) = P(heads = 2) + P(heads
= 1)
P(Exactly two heads or exactly 2 tails) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 1)
P(Exactly two heads or exactly 2 tails) = 0.375 + 0.375
P(Exactly two heads or exactly 2 tails) = 0.750
