A com is tossed. If the outcome is a head, a die is thrown. If the die shows up an even number, the die is thrown again. What is the sample space for the experiment?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
N/a

In a toss of a coin `H` or `T` are shown. When `H` occurs, a die is thrown to get 1,2,3,4, or 6.
When an even number 2,4, or 6 occurs again a die is thrown to get `1,2,3,4,5` or 6..
Therefore sample space
`={T,H1,H3,H5,H21,H23,H24,H25,H26`,
`H41,H42,H43,H44,H45,H46,H61, H62,H63`,
`H64,H65,H66}`
