Detailed explanation-1: -In a probability experiment, the sample space is the set that contains all possible outcomes. In this question, one jelly bean will be chosen, which will either be red, blue or green. Thus, the possible outcomes are red, blue or green, which means that the sample space is: red, blue, green, given by option B.
Detailed explanation-2: -The sample space is S = H, T. E = H is an event. Example 2 Tossing a die. The sample space is S = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
Detailed explanation-3: -The sample space S of a random experiment is defined as the set of all possible outcomes of an experiment. In a random experiment, the outcomes, also known as sample points, are mutually exclusive (i.e., they cannot occur simultaneously).
Detailed explanation-4: -A sample space is a collection or a set of possible outcomes of a random experiment. The sample space is represented using the symbol, “S”. The subset of possible outcomes of an experiment is called events. A sample space may contain a number of outcomes that depends on the experiment.
