Suppose you roll an eight-sided die two times hoping to get two numbers whose sum is greater than ten. What is the sample space? How many favorable outcomes are there? I give MEDAL and become a FAN

OpenStudy (geekfromthefutur):

I wonder what an eight-sided die looks like.

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

sample space is all the possible pairs of throws you could get

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

While the favourable outcomes are those throws which give a sum greater than 10 :D
