Sample space and events. A compound event is the selected card is red there are 26 red cards and so there are 26 simple events comprising the compound event 4. An outcome is in ef if it is either in e or. Sample space and events sample space. It is common to refer to a sample space by the labels s w or u for.

Rolling an ordinary six sided die is a familiar example of a random experiment an action for which all possible outcomes can be listed but for which the actual outcome on any given trial of the experiment cannot be predicted with certaintyin such a situation we wish to assign to each outcome such as rolling a two a number called the probability of the outcome. Sample space and eventsbr if two events have no element in common they are called mutually exclusive events ie. A subset of the sample space.

They cannot occur simultaneouslybr in above example r t are not mutually exclusive events while r u and t u are mutually exclusive eventsbr in order to discuss the basic concepts of the probabilistic model which we wish to develop it will be very convenient to. Rolling an ordinary six sided die is a familiar example of a random experiment an action for which all possible outcomes can be listed but for which the actual outcome on any given trial of the experiment cannot be predicted with certaintyin such a situation we wish to assign to each outcome such as rolling a two a number called the probability of the outcome.
