Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the coin is a fair coin.

Since we already know that the first 9 tosses were heads, the probability of 9 straight heads in the first 9 tosses is 1.

It all depends on the last toss. There is an equal probability of heads and tails in a single toss of a fair coin.

p(heads) = 1/2

p(10 heads) = 1/2
