Answer:

The probability of getting heads from a coin is 1/2. If you flip the coin ten times, the probability that it will be heads every time is (1/2)^10 = 1/1024.

However, if you are asking for the probability of getting at least one head in ten flips, then you can use the complement rule to find the probability of getting no heads and subtract it from 1. The probability of getting no heads in ten flips is (1/2)^10 = 1/1024, so the probability of getting at least one head is 1 - 1/1024 = 1023/1024, which is approximately 0.999.
