There are only two possible outcomes when a quarter and a nickel are tossed. The first outcome is when both coins land on heads and the second outcome is when both coins land on tails. Therefore, the correct answer is 2.

There are a total of 8 people trying out for the play, with 5 boys and 3 girls. The probability that the first person chosen is a boy can be calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes (choosing a boy) by the total number of possible outcomes (choosing any person).

In this case, there are 5 boys out of a total of 8 people trying out, so the probability of choosing a boy as the first person is 5/8.

Therefore, the correct answer is "5 of 8".

There are a total of 2 red crayons + 3 green crayons + 5 black crayons + 1 blue crayon + 3 orange crayons = 14 crayons in the box.

Out of these 14 crayons, there are 3 green crayons.

Therefore, the probability of selecting a green crayon is 3/14.

So, the correct answer is "3 of 14".

The term that defines the number of possible outcomes is "sample space".

The sample space refers to the set of all possible outcomes in a given situation or experiment. It encompasses all possible results or events that can occur.

Therefore, the correct answer is "sample space".

The bag contains one piece of each color - red, blue, yellow, orange, green, and brown.

Therefore, the total number of pieces in the bag is 6.

Out of these 6 pieces, there is 1 red piece.

Therefore, the probability of drawing out a red piece is 1/6.

So, the correct answer is "Mathml image 1".

To determine the total number of possible outcomes for this event, we need to multiply the number of options for each characteristic together.

For the number of speeds, we have three options: one speed, three speeds, or ten speeds.
For the color, we have four options: red, blue, green, or black.

Multiplying the number of options for the number of speeds (3) with the number of options for the color (4) gives us a total of 3 * 4 = 12 possible outcomes.

Therefore, the correct answer is "12".
