Question

Spinner 1
Spinner 2
Randy spins spinner 1 and then spins spinner 2. Determine the sample space for the
experiment.
O [A1, B2, C3}
{A1, A4, B1, B4, C3, C2)
O
A1, A2, A3, A4, B1, B2, B3, B4, C1, C2, C3, C4}
O
[A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3, C1, C2, C3}

Answer 1

Answer:

• See below

Explanation:

Since the spinner 1 and spinner 2 are not shown. I will answer you in an hypothetical case.

Hypothetical case:

• Spinner 1 has 3 sections, namely A, B, and C

• Spinner 2 has four sections, namely 1, 2, 3, 4

The sample space is the set of all the possible outcomes that can result in the experiment.

You can build a table to show the possible outcomes (sample space) for the experiment "Randy spins spinner 1 and then spins spinner 2":

                 Spinner 1          A       B      C

Spinner 2

    1                                    A1      B1      C1

    2                                   A2     B2     C2

    3                                   A3     B3     C3

    4                                   A4     B4     C4

Where A1 means that the spinner one shows the A and the spinner two shows the 1, and so on.

Hence, the sample space for this (hypothetical) experiment is {A1, A2, A3, A4, B1, B2, B3, B4, C1, C2, C3, C4}, which would B the fourth choice.
