Randy spins spinner 1 and then spins spinner 2. Determine the sample space for the experiment. A. {A1, B2, C3} B. {A1, A4, B1, B4, C3, C2} C. {A1, A2, A3, A4, B1, B2, B3, B4, C1, C2, C3, C4} D. {A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3, C1, C2, C3}http://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/332000_332500/332447/1/135ef55571b76ebfee86f5084f9979f51bfd408f/MS_ALG_A2_03_quiz_Q1_question.gif
It depends on what's on the spinners...
So the sample space means a list of every possible outcome that could happen as result of doing whatever it is you're doing.
I'm explaining it. What are all the possible outcomes for spinner 1?
A,B and C right?
Are you still there?
Yes.
So you know that I said A,B or C right?
I saw. Ok, so, now, what are all the possible outcomes of spinner 2.
R u still there?
Yes.
Okay so what were the outcomes that you figured out ?
I was asking you. :P What are all the possible outcomes of spinner 2?
????..... no idea ...:(
oh spinner 2....1,2,3,4 ...right?
Yes you did. You answered correctly for spinner 1. Just look at spinner 2 and tell me everything that can come up. Yes, exactly.
so what is the sample space?
We're getting to that.
oh :)
Like I explained above, the sample space is every possible outcome that could happen.
so the answer would be...just a sec.
c or d
Right. Is it possible to spin an A on spinner 1 and a 4 on spinner 2?
sooooooo .....which 1 is the final answer?
I'm not going to just tell you the answer. If you want to figure this out yourself, I'll help you.
So I've already figured out that it has to be A or C.If I say something that is correct just type "correct" Okay
Is that correct?
Are you still there?
Hello???
Yes
It tells me when you've posted. Don't worry. I'm still paying attention.
I was correct by saying A or C right?
Yes, so far so good.
So now I have to chose between the 2?
Or just guess randomly. But it's probably better if you figure out the right answer, yes. :D
I think it is A!If I am correct type "correct". If I am incorrect Put a capital X
Well, that pretty much tells you the answer. So before that tell me why you think A is correct.
Because it tells you all of the possible answers and you told me sample space was all of the possible answers.:D
I mean all of the possible OUTCOMES. :)
But it doesn't tell you all the possible answers. What if I spin A4? Or B1? Or C4? None of those are listed in A.
Outcomes! You made me do it too!
Oh my mistake I wasn't looking at the answers right! :P I thinks it's C .THAT has all of the possible outcomes
Correct!
Yay! I got it right!!!! :)
