"_13C_4 = 715

Explanation:

this seems like a combination problem where we select "_13C_4 = 715. this means that out of the 13 times there are 715 where times where we can group 4 items differently in this case representing the heads.

""_13C_4=(13!)/(4!*9!)=715

Explanation:

You have a sequence of 13 outcomes;
Exactly 4 of these outcomes must be Heads;
that is, we need to choose 4 locations within 13 where Heads are to occur.

""_13C_4=(13!)/(4! * 9!)=(13xx12xx11xx10)/(4xx3xx2xx1)=715

Note: we could have just as well thought of this as choosing 9 locations in the sequence for the Tails since ""_13C_4=""_13C_9
