Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion and the other is labelled as Reason.
STATEMENT - 1 (Assertion): If 12 coins are thrown simultaneously, then probability of appearing exactly five heads is equal to probability of appearing exactly 7 heads.
STATEMENT - 2 (Reason) : \({ }^{n} C_{r}={ }^{n} C_{s} \Rightarrow \text { either } r=5 \text { or } r+5=n\) and P(H) = P(T) in a single trial.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion
- Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
- Assertion is true and Reason is false
- Assertion is false and Reason is true
