Name as many uses of Pascal's Triangle as you can.

1. Row n is equal to 11^n

2. The sum of row n is 2^n

3. Binomial theorem: For each row n, the numbers are the coefficients of the terms in (x+y)^n

4. Hockey stick identity: for each right-down diagonal, the sum of the numbers within that line will equal the number left-down diagonal of the lowest number.

5. Pascal's identity: For any 2 numbers next to each other in the same row, the number diagonal down of both numbers is equal to those numbers' sum.

If I flip one coin, there is a 50/50 chance of heads or tails. I flip 35 coins: 14 coins 5 times, and the rest 90 times. What is the probability of getting heads?

The probability doesn't change because each coin has a 50/50 chance. So if 35 coins all have a 50/50 chance, the total chance is unchanged.

ans: 50%
