Find the sample space. a Bag contains 4 marbles: one each of red, blue, green and violet. Two marbles are drawn from the bag. assume that the first marble is not put in the bag before drawing the second marblle
To find the sample space, we need to determine all possible outcomes of selecting two marbles from the bag.
Step 1: Assign labels to the marbles. Let's label them as follows:
R - red
B - blue
G - green
V - violet
Step 2: Determine all possible outcomes by listing all combinations of two marbles. Remember, the order doesn't matter in this case, as the first marble is not replaced before drawing the second marble. The possible outcomes are:
1. RR
2. RB
3. RG
4. RV
5. BR
6. BB
7. BG
8. BV
9. GR
10. GB
11. GG
12. GV
13. VR
14. VB
15. VG
16. VV
Therefore, the sample space consists of 16 possible outcomes.
