While statistics are not available for web entrepreneurs who fail, the venture capitalists that finance such Internet start-up companies have a rule of thumb. For every 10 ventures that receive financing—and there are plenty that do not—2 will be stock market successes, which means spectacular profits for early investors; 3 will be sold to other concerns, which translates into more modest profits; and the rest will fail. (a) What is a sample space for the scenario? S = {Stock market success, Sold to other concerns, Fail} S = {Web entrepreneurs, Venture capitalists, Ventures}     S = {10, 2, 3} S = {2, 3, the rest} S = {Web entrepreneurs, Venture capitalists, Internet start-up companies}

Question
While statistics are not available for web entrepreneurs who fail, the venture capitalists that finance such Internet start-up companies have a rule of thumb. For every 10 ventures that receive financing—and there are plenty that do not—2 will be stock market successes, which means spectacular profits for early investors; 3 will be sold to other concerns, which translates into more modest profits; and the rest will fail.
(a)
What is a sample space for the scenario?
  1. S = {Stock market success, Sold to other concerns, Fail}
  2. S = {Web entrepreneurs, Venture capitalists, Ventures}    
  3. S = {10, 2, 3}
  4. S = {2, 3, the rest}
  5. S = {Web entrepreneurs, Venture capitalists, Internet start-up companies}
