Determine the sample space for an experiment where a coin is selected from a bag three times. There are three coins placed in the bag: a nickel (N) a quarter (Q) and a dime (D) Each time a coin is selected it is replaced before selecting the next coin.
Will that be 12 in total possible outcomes?

Yes, the sample space for this experiment will have 27 possible outcomes. Each time a coin is selected, there are 3 possible outcomes (N, Q, or D). So for three selections, the total number of possible outcomes is 3^3 = 27.

Apologies for the error. Let's determine the correct number of possible outcomes for this experiment:
For each selection, there are 3 possible coins that can be chosen from the bag (nickel, quarter, or dime). Since each coin is replaced before the next selection, the sample space for the experiment will have 3 outcomes for each selection.
Therefore, for three selections, the total number of possible outcomes will be 3 * 3 * 3 = 27.
So, there will be 27 possible outcomes in total for this experiment.
