    a) Probability (all heads) = 0.03125

    b) Probability (atleast one tail) = 0.25

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total possible ways 0f 4 flips = 2^4 = 16

    Probability of 4 flips=1/16 = 0.0625

    a) Probability P (heads only)

    Using combination

    (heads only) = 4!/4 (4-0) !

    (heads only) = 24/48 = 1/2 = 0.5

    P (heads only) = 0.5 * 0.0625 = 0.03125

    b) using combination

    Atleast one tail = 4!/1 (4-1) ! = 4!/3!

    At least one tail = 24/6 = 4

    Probability (at least one tail) = 4 * 0.0625 = 0.25
