Question:
Consider an experiment of rolling two dice. Figure 2 shows a convenient sample space that will enable us to answer many questions about interesting events. Let S be the set of all ordered pairs in the figure. The simple event (3, 2) is distinguished from the simple event (2, 3). The former indicates that a 3 turned up on the first die and a 2 on the second, while the latter indicates that a 2 turned up on the first die and a 3 on the second
What is the event (subset of the sample space S) that corresponds to each of the following outcomes?
(A) A sum of 7 turns up.
(B) A sum of 11 turns up.
(C) A sum less than 4 turns up.
(D) A sum of 12 turns up.
