Question

Select all the statements that would be true in a probability model for rolling a cube with faces numbered 1 through 6.

Sample space: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

P(1) = 16

P(2) = 26

P(6) = 16

The outcomes of the trial: 2, 2, 2, 5, 3, 2, 6, 5, 6, 1

Answer 1

Answer: A,B, D and E.

Explanation:

When a cube with faces numbered 1 through 6 is rolled:

(A)The sample space is 1,2,3,4,5,6. Option A is correct

(B) P(rolling a 1) =1/6, Option B is correct

(C)P(rolling a 2)=1/6, therefore option C is incorrect.

(D)P(rolling a 6)=1/6, Option D is correct

(E)In an experimental trial, the outcome must be members of the sample space. Therefore, the outcomes in option (E), 2, 2, 2, 5, 3, 2, 6, 5, 6, 1 are valid.
