1. For each of the following experiments, state the sample space S a. A pair of dice is to be rolled, and the sum of the two numbers shown is to be recorded. b. Ask a randomly selected student how many days a week they commute to campus (assume students commute at least once a week). c. A coin is to be flipped 3 times, and each outcome is to be recorded. (hint: 8 elements) d. A coin is to be flipped 3 times, and the number of tails shown is to be recorded e. A pair of dice is to be rolled, and the minimum of the two numbers shown is to be recorded.

Explanation / Answer

a) S = {2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12}

b) S ={ M,T,W,Th,F S, S}

c) S ={ HHH,HTH,HHT,HTT,THH,TTH,THT,TTT}

d) S={ HTH, HHT,,HTT, THH,TTH, THT, TTT} = {0,1,2,3}

e) S ={1,2,3,4,5}
