Question

which of the following statements best describe sample space?
a. the set of all possible outcomes of an experiment.
b. a single outcome of an experiment.
c. the probability that one event leads to another event.
d. a function that displays each outcome of a random event with its probability.

Explanation:

A sample space is defined as the set of all possible outcomes of an experiment. Option B is a single outcome (an element of the sample space, not the sample space itself). Option C describes a conditional probability concept. Option D refers to a probability distribution function.

Answer:

A. The set of all possible outcomes of an experiment.
