Question

if you flip two coins, what are the possible outcomes? figure out the outcomes and write out the sample spaces. start with coin 1, then coin 2

Explanation:

Step1: Consider first - coin head

When Coin 1 is heads, Coin 2 can be either heads or tails. So the outcomes are (h, h) and (h, t).

Step2: Consider first - coin tail

When Coin 1 is tails, Coin 2 can be either heads or tails. So the outcomes are (t, h) and (t, t).

Answer:

The sample space is \{(h, h), (h, t), (t, h), (t, t)\}
