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 a or c . If there is more than one element in the set, separate them with commas.

Hey There!!

To this Question, This answer going to had A Explanation to this: Sample space--

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}

Hope It Helped!~ ♡

Sample space = {a,b,c,d,e,f}

Event space = {a,c}

We simply list all of the letters mentioned as they are the possible outcomes. We can only pick one item from the sample space. The event space is the set of outcomes where we want to happen (picking either an 'a' or 'c').
