Question
Consider an experiment of drawing two cards at random from a bag containing 4 cards marked 5, 6, 7, and 8. Find the sample Space if cards are drawn with replacement.
Solution
The bag contains 4 cards marked 5, 6, 7, and 8. Two cards are to be drawn from this bag.
If the two cards are drawn with replacement, then the sample space is
S = {(5, 5), (5, 6), (5, 7), (5, 8), (6, 5), (6, 6), (6, 7), (6, 8), (7, 5), (7, 6), (7, 7), (7, 8), (8, 5), (8, 6), (8, 7), (8, 8)}
