Question
- which scenario is an example of a compound event?
a. rolling one die
b. flipping one coin
c. rolling a die and flipping a coin
d. drawing a single card
A compound event consists of two or more simple events. Rolling a die is a simple event (a single action with outcomes like 1 - 6). Flipping a coin is a simple event (outcomes heads or tails). Drawing a single card is a simple event. But rolling a die (one simple event) and flipping a coin (another simple event) together form a compound event as it combines two distinct simple events.
