A coin is flipped eight times where each flip comes up either heads or tails. How many possible outcomes a) are there in total

256 outcomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time you flip the coin you have two possible outcomes, it can either come up with heads or tails.

You're going to flip the coin eight times so the first time you can have 2 possible outcomes, the second time you have 2 possible outcomes, the third time you have 2 possible outcomes, etc.

Since you are going to do this eight times you are going to multiply each of the outcomes, so you will have:

Possible outcomes = 2×2×2×2×2×2×2×2= 256

Thus, there are 256 different outcomes in total.
