Question

List the experimental outcomes. (Select all that apply.)

1) (h)
2) (t)
3) (h, h)
4) (h, t)
5) (t, h)
6) (t, t)
7) (b)

Answer 1

The experimental outcomes are options 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 for the coin flips, and option 7 is not a recognized outcome in this context.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question deals with the concept of experimental outcomes in a probability context. If we consider flipping one fair coin, as mentioned in Example 3.13, the possible outcomes are heads (H) and tails (T), so the experimental outcomes would be option 1 (H) and option 2 (T). However, if the experiment involves flipping a coin twice or a coin and a dice, then the pairs of outcomes like option 3 (H, H), option 4 (H, T), option 5 (T, H), and option 6 (T, T) would become relevant. These pairs represent the combined possible outcomes from each of the two independent events (either two coin flips or a coin flip and a die roll). Option 7 (b) does not seem to correspond to any recognized outcome from flipping a coin or rolling a die, as cited in the provided reference material.
