Answer:

(a) Shown below.

(b) Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The sample space of rolling an 8-sided die twice is as follows:

S = {(1 , 1) , ( 1 , 2) , ( 1, 3) , ( 1, 4 ) , ( 1, 5) , ( 1 , 6 ) , ( 1, 7 ) , ( 1, 8) ,

        (2 , 1) , (2 , 2) , ( 2, 3) , ( 2, 4 ) , ( 2, 5) , (2 , 6 ) , ( 2, 7 ) , ( 2, 8) ,

        (3 , 1) , ( 3, 2) , ( 3, 3) , ( 3, 4 ) , ( 3, 5) , ( 3 , 6 ) , (3, 7 ) , ( 3, 8) ,

        (4, 1) , ( 4 , 2) , ( 4, 3) , ( 4, 4 ) , ( 4, 5) , (4 , 6 ) , (4, 7 ) , (4, 8) ,

        (5, 1) , ( 5 , 2) , ( 5, 3) , (5, 4 ) , ( 5 ,5) , (5, 6 ) , ( 5, 7 ) , ( 5, 8) ,

        (6 , 1) , ( 6 , 2) , ( 6, 3) , (6, 4 ) , ( 6, 5) , (6 , 6 ) , ( 6, 7 ) , ( 6, 8) ,

        (7 , 1) , ( 7 , 2) , ( 7, 3) , ( 7, 4 ) , ( 7 , 5) , ( 7, 6 ) , ( 7, 7 ) , (7, 8) ,

        (8 , 1) , ( 8 , 2) , (8, 3) , ( 8, 4 ) , ( 8, 5) , ( 8 , 6 ) , ( 8, 7 ) , ( 8, 8)}

There are a total of <em>N</em> = 64 elements.

(b)

(i)

The product of the two numbers is a prime number:

Product is a prime number samples:

2 = ( 1, 2)  , ( 2, 1)

3  = ( 1 , 3) , ( 3 , 1)

5 = ( 1, 5) , ( 5 , 1)

7 = ( 1, 7) , ( 7 , 1)

Number of samples, <em>n</em> = 8

P (Product is a prime number) = 8/64 = 1/8 = 0.125.

(ii)

The product of the two numbers is not a perfect square :

Product is not a perfect square samples:

2 =  ( 1, 2)  , ( 2, 1)

3  = ( 1 , 3) , ( 3 , 1)

5 = ( 1, 5) , ( 5 , 1)

6 = ( 1, 6) , ( 2, 3) , ( 3, 2) , ( 6 , 1)

7 = ( 1, 7) , ( 7 , 1)

8 = ( 1 , 8) , ( 2, 4) , ( 4 , 2) , ( 8 , 1)

10 = ( 2, 5) , ( 5, 2)

12 = (2 , 6) , ( 3 , 4) , ( 4 3)  , ( 6 , 2)

14  = ( 2, 7) , ( 7 , 2)

15 = (3 , 5) , ( 5 , 3)

18 = ( 3, 6) , ( 6 , 3)

20 = ( 4, 5) , ( 5, 4)

21 = ( 3 , 7) , ( 7 , 3)

24 = ( 3 , 8) , ( 4 , 6 ) , ( 6 , 4) , ( 8 , 3)

28 = ( 4 , 7)  , ( 7 , 4)

30 = ( 5 , 6) , ( 6 ,5 )

32 = ( 4 , 8) , ( 8 , 4)

35 = ( 5 , 7) , ( 7 , 5)

40 = ( 5 , 8) , ( 8 , 5)

42 = ( 6 , 7) , ( 7 , 6)

48 = ( 6 , 8) , ( 8 , 6)

56 = ( 7 , 8) , ( 8 , 8)

Number of samples, <em>n</em> = 52

P (Product is not a perfect square) = 52/64 = 0.8125

(iii)

The product of the two numbers is a multiple of 5:

Product is a multiple of 5 samples:

5 = ( 1, 5) , ( 5 , 1)

10 = ( 2, 5) , ( 5, 2)

15 = (3 , 5) , ( 5 , 3)

20 = ( 4, 5) , ( 5, 4)

25 = ( 5 , 5)

30 = ( 5 , 6) , ( 6 ,5 )

35 = ( 5 , 7) , ( 7 , 5)

40 = ( 5 , 8) , ( 8 , 5)

Number of samples, <em>n</em> = 15

P (Product is a multiple of 5 ) = 15/64 = 0.2344.

(iv)

The product of the two numbers is less than or equal to 21:

Product is less than or equal to 21 samples:

1   =  ( 1, 1)

2 =  ( 1, 2)  , ( 2, 1)

3  = ( 1 , 3) , ( 3 , 1)

4 =   (1 , 4) , ( 2, 2) , ( 4, 1)

5 = ( 1, 5) , ( 5 , 1)

6 = ( 1, 6) , ( 2, 3) , ( 3, 2) , ( 6 , 1)

7 = ( 1, 7) , ( 7 , 1)

8 = ( 1 , 8) , ( 2, 4) , ( 4 , 2) , ( 8 , 1)

9 = ( 3, 3)

10 = ( 2, 5) , ( 5, 2)

12 = (2 , 6) , ( 3 , 4) , ( 4 3)  , ( 6 , 2)

14  = ( 2, 7) , ( 7 , 2)

15 = (3 , 5) , ( 5 , 3)

16  = (2 , 8) , ( 4 , 4) , ( 8 , 2)

18 = ( 3, 6) , ( 6 , 3)

20 = ( 4, 5) , ( 5, 4)

21 = ( 3 , 7) , ( 7 , 3)

Number of samples, <em>n</em> = 40

P (Product is less than or equal to 21) = 40/64 = 0.625.

(v)

The product of the two numbers is divisible by 4 or 6:

Product is divisible by 4 or 6 samples:

4 =   (1 , 4) , ( 2, 2) , ( 4, 1)

6 = ( 1, 6) , ( 2, 3) , ( 3, 2) , ( 6 , 1)

8 = ( 1 , 8) , ( 2, 4) , ( 4 , 2) , ( 8 , 1)

12 = (2 , 6) , ( 3 , 4) , ( 4 3)  , ( 6 , 2)

16  = (2 , 8) , ( 4 , 4) , ( 8 , 2)

18 = ( 3, 6) , ( 6 , 3)

20 = ( 4, 5) , ( 5, 4)

24 = ( 3 , 8) , ( 4 , 6 ) , ( 6 , 4) , ( 8 , 3)

28 = ( 4 , 7)  , ( 7 , 4)

30 = ( 5 , 6) , ( 6 ,5 )

32 = ( 4 , 8) , ( 8 , 4)

36 = (6 , 6)

40 = ( 5 , 8) , ( 8 , 5)

42 = ( 6 , 7) , ( 7 , 6)

48 = ( 6 , 8) , ( 8 , 6)

56 = ( 7 , 8) , ( 8 , 8)

64 = ( 8 , 8)

Number of samples, <em>n</em> = 42

P (Product is less than or equal to 21) = 42/64 = 0.6563.
