Question
Do the following activity -
Activity II : Decide the sample space yourself and fill in the following boxes.
Solution
Let us suppose the sample space be {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 10}
Event A: Getting an even number
A = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}
∴ n(A) = 5
Now,`P(A)=(n(A))/(n(S)`
`=5/10`
`=1/2`

Two coins are tossed simultaneously. Complete the following activity of writing of the sample space (S) and expected outcomes of the events :
1) Event A : to get at least one head.
2) Event B : to get no head.
Activity : If two coins are tossed simultaneously
∴ s = {`square , "HT","TH", square`}
1) Event A : at least getting one head.
∴ A = {`"HH" , square , "TH"`}
2) Event B : to get no head.
∴ B = {`square`}

Write the sample space if two coins are tossed.
Two coins are tossed simultaneously. Write the sample space (S) and expected sample points in the given events by completing the activity.
- Event A: to get at least one head.
- Event B: to get no head.
Activity: Let ‘S’ be the sample space, when two coins are tossed simultaneously.
∴ S = `{square, HT, TH, square}`
i. Event A: to get at least one head.
∴ A = `{HH, square, TH}`
ii. Event B: to get no head.
∴ B = `{square}`.
Assertion (A): A die is thrown once and the probability of getting an even number is `2/3`.
Reason (R): The sample space for even numbers on a die is {2, 4, 6}.
