Question: An event may contain sample points that are not in the original sample space of the experiment. For example, the experiment of rolling two dice
An event may contain sample points that are not in the original sample space of the experiment. For example, the experiment of rolling two dice has the following sample space:
{(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6),
(3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6), (4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6),
(5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6), (6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6)}
However, the event of rolling a sum of at least 11 on the two dice is {11, 12}.
A) True
B) False
