Question
An experiment consists of rolling a die and then tossing a coin once if the number on the die is even. If the number on the die is odd, the coin is tossed twice. Write the sample space for this experiment.
Step 1
A die has six faces, each with a different number from 1 to 6. So, the possible outcomes when rolling a die are {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Show more…
