Question

List all the elements of the sample space for the following experiment: You roll a die and toss a penny.

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer A.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a 1/2 chance of getting either heads or tails on a coin since there are only two sides. That means that half of the pairs should contain H and half should contain T.

There is a 1/6 chance of rolling every number on a die. So this needs to be represented with the numbers 1-6 on every pair.

So if we combine both of those, 1-6 being on every pair and H being on half and T being on the other half, we get

1, H

2, H

3, H

4, H

5, H

6, H

1, T

2, T

3, T

4, T

5, T

6, T

Which is answer A.
