Short Answer TypeA coin is tossed. If it shows a tail, we draw a ball from a box which contains 2 red and 3 black balls. If it shows head, we throw a die. Find the sample space for this experiment.
A box contains 1 red and 3 identical white balls. One ball is drawn from the box, its colour is noted, it is placed back in the box and then a second ball is drawn. Write the sample space of the experiment.
The three dice are R, W and B. One die is selected at random. Its sample space is:
The number on its uppermost face is noted, the sample space for which is
Hence, the combined sample space is
S = {R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, W1, W2, W3, W4, W5, W6, B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6}
