Alexis flips a coin {H, T}; then rolls a 6-sided die {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

Which outcome is in the sample space of this experiment?

A.

TT

B.

T3

C.

24

D.

3H

Answer: D. 36 B. T3 Step-by-step explanation:

1. For each of the 6 outcomes on the first die, there are 6 outcomes possible on the second. The total number of possible outcomes is then ...

... 6 * 6 = 36

2. The first outcome will be a letter H or T; the second will be a number 1-6. An outcome of TT represent two coin tosses; an outcome of 24 represent two die rolls; an outcome of 3H represents a die roll followed by a coin toss. None of these three scenarios matches the problem statement.

A coin toss followed by a die roll may have an outcome of T3.
