Question

Use the tree diagram to answer the question. How many possible outcomes are illustrated in the tree diagram? (1 point) Responses 2 2 4 4 6 6 8

Answer 1

To determine the number of possible outcomes illustrated in a tree diagram, you typically count the different branches or paths in the diagram. Each branch represents a possible outcome of a decision or event.

Since you have provided options (2, 4, or 6, or 8), and without seeing the specific tree diagram, I can guide you on how to find the number of outcomes:

1. **Count the Levels:** Identify how many decisions/events are represented in the tree.
2. **Count Branches:** For each decision/event, count the number of branches that stem from it.
3. **Multiply Branches Together:** Multiply the number of branches from each level to determine the total number of possible outcomes.

For instance, if the first decision has 2 branches and the second decision also has 2 branches, then the total outcomes would be \(2 \times 2 = 4\).

If you could provide more details or the structure of the tree diagram, I could give a more precise answer. However, based solely on the options presented, you would typically arrive at an answer by performing the steps outlined above.
