4. Excelsior Law School and Foremost Instute of Law are each going to randomly invite one of the current nine Supreme Court Justices to give a speech. (It is entirely possible that they'll both invite the same person, and that's fine.) Consider a sample space S that naturally describes all the possible ways this could go. What should the outcomes in this sample space look like, and how many of them are there? (Hint: the answer is not 9 or 18 or 72.)
