The sample space for this experiment consists of all possible outcomes for each coin selection. Since there are two coins in the bag (nickel and quarter), and each coin is selected before the next one is chosen, the sample space would be:
{NN, NQ, QN, QQ}
Where:
- NN represents selecting a nickel first, followed by selecting a nickel again
- NQ represents selecting a nickel first, followed by selecting a quarter
- QN represents selecting a quarter first, followed by selecting a nickel
- QQ represents selecting a quarter first, followed by selecting a quarter again
Therefore, the sample space for this experiment consists of four possible outcomes.
Determine the sample space for an experiment where a coin is selected from a bag two times the coin placed in the bag are nickel and quarter each time a coin is selected it is represented before selecting the next coin
