Explanation of Solution
Given:
On the first roll is possible to roll a
Concept used:
Sample space:-In
Calculation:
A sample space is usually denoted using set notation and the possible ordered outcomes are listed as element in the set
On the first roll is possible to roll a
On the second roll it is possible to roll a
The sample sequence then contains all possible combinations of outcomes on the first and second roll
(b)
To find:
The assignment of probability to outcome in this sample space
(b)
Answer to Problem 39E
The probability
Explanation of Solution
Given:
On the first roll is possible to roll a
Concept used:
Sample space:-In probability theory the sample space of an experiment or random trial is the set of all possible outcomes or result of that experiment
Calculation:
The sample space of a sequence of die flips is all possible sequences of outcomes
That is
The sample of a die flip is
Since the given sample space has
Therefore , the probability of all the
Hence ,
The probability
