ANSWER

B. 5, H

Step-by-step explanation

A sample space is a set of all the possible outcomes of an experiment.

The possible outcomes for rolling a number cube are:


\mleft\lbrace1,2,3,4,5,6\mright\rbrace

The possible outcomes for tossing a coin are:


\mleft\lbrace H,T\mright\rbrace

Therefore, the only option that can be an element in the sample space for first rolling a number cube and then tossing a coin is option B.

This is because the number comes before the Head (or tail) unlike the other options:


B)5,H
