rows of coins. There is 1 coin in the first row, 2 coins in the second row, 3 coins in the third row, and so on, up to coins in the th row. Initially, all of the coins show heads (H). Carley plays a game in which, on each turn, she chooses three mutually adjacent coins and flips these three coins over. To win the game, all of the coins must be showing tails (T) after a sequence of turns. An example game with 4 rows of coins after a sequence of two turns is shown. for which it is possible to win the game starting with rows of coins.
