Question

Identify the sample space of the probability experiment and determine the number of outcomes in the sample space. Playing the game of​ roulette, where the wheel consists of slots numbered​ 00, 0,​ 1, 2,​ ..., To play the​ game, a metal ball is spun around the wheel and is allowed to fall into one of the numbered slots.a. The sample space is (00, 0}. b. The sample space is (00, 0, 1,2,., 33). c. The sample space is (00). d. The sample space is (1, 2,..., 33).

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is (B).

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that, in a game of roulette the  wheel consists of slots numbered​ 00, 0,​ 1, 2,​ ..., 33.

The sample space of an experiment, is the set of all the possible outcomes of the random trials.

There are a total of 35 slots on the roulette wheel where the ball can land.

So, there are a total of 35 outcomes for one rotation of the wheel.

Then the sample space consists of all the 35 outcomes, i.e.

S = {00, 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., 33}

Thus, the correct option is (B).
