Steven has 1 bag that contains disks numbered 1, 2, 3. He also has a second bag that contains four disks named A, B, C, and D. Construct a sample space of picking one disk randomly for each bag and state the total of outcomes possible

Answer 1

Total possible outcomes = 12

{A1 ; A2 ; A3 ; B1; B2;B3;C1;C2;C3;D1;D2;D3}

Explanation:

Bag 1 = { 1, 2, 3}

Bag 2 = {A, B, C, D}

Sample space :

Size of bag A * size of bag B

3 * 4

= 12
