Question
What is the sum of the probabilities of all the outcomes in a sample space?
Step 1
A sample space is the set of all possible outcomes of a random experiment. For example, if we flip a coin, the sample space is {Heads, Tails}. If we roll a six-sided die, the sample space is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Show more…
