An experiment consists of tossing a coin and then throwing it second time if a head occurs. If a tail occurs on the first toss, then a die is rolled once. Find the sample space

Solution:

A coin has two faces: head (H) and tail (T).

A die has six faces that are numbered from1 to 6, with one number on each face.

Thus, in the given experiment, the sample space is given by

S = {HH , HT, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6}

An experiment consists of tossing a coin and then throwing it second time if a head occurs. If a tail occurs on the first toss, then a die is rolled once. Find the sample space.

Summary:

An experiment consists of tossing a coin and then throwing it second time if a head occurs. If a tail occurs on the first toss, then a die is rolled once. Then the sample space (S) = {HH , HT, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6}
