Question

counting and probability. determining a sample space and outcomes for an event: experiment... a bag has five balls labeled a, b, c, d, and e. one ball will be randomly picked, and its letter will be recorded as the outcome. give the sample - space describing all possible outcomes. then give all of the outcomes for the event of choosing the letter b. if there is more than one element in the set, separate them with commas. sample space: {} event of choosing the letter b : {}

Explanation:

Step1: Define sample - space

The sample - space is the set of all possible outcomes. Here, the possible letters on the balls are A, B, C, D, E.
{A, B, C, D, E}

Step2: Define event

The event of choosing the letter B has only one outcome, which is B.
{B}

Answer:

Sample space: {A, B, C, D, E}
Event of choosing the letter B: {B}
