Find the sample space for the indicated experiment: A coin is tossed and a die is thrown.


Suppose a coin is tossed and head appears. Then a die is thrown and 1 appears on the die. We denote this outcome by an ordered pair (H, 1) and so on.

The sample space is given by:

S = {(H, 1), (H, 2), (H, 3), (H, 4), (H, 5), (H, 6), (T, 1), (T, 2), (T, 3), (T, 4), (T, 5),
(T, 6)}
