Question

A bag has six balls labeled a,b,c,d.e and f . One ball will be randomly picked, and its letter will be recorded as the outcome. Give the sample space describing all possible outcomes. Then give all of the outcomes for the event of choosing the letter b,e or c . If there is more than one element in the set, separate them with commas.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a bag contains 6 balls labelled A to F.

Given that a ball is drawn at random and its letter is recorded as outcome.

Since each ball is equally likely to be drawn the sample space for one ball drawing is

S = {A,B,C,D,E,F} and n(S) = 6

Let G be the event of choosing a lable from D to F

G = The event of choosing a label from D to F= {D,E,F}  n(A) = 3

A sample space is a set which contains the set of all the possible outcomes or results that could occur while performing an experiment.

i.e. the sample space while flipping a coin is: {H,T}

The sample space while tossing a six-sided die is: {1,2,3,4,5,6}

Here it is given that:

A bag has six balls labeled:  A,B,C,D,E,F

One ball will be randomly picked, and its letter will be recorded as the outcome.

       This means that the sample space is given by:

                     Sample space={ A,B,C,D,E,F}

Now, when the event is choosing a letter from   D to F.

            Then the sample space is:

                     Sample space= {D,E,F}
