Describe events as subsets of a sample space using unions, intersections, and complements.

List the sample space of a finite experiment

Problem

List the complete sample space for flipping \(\text{one}~\text{coin}\) and spinning a spinner labeled \(1,~2,~\text{and}~3\). Pair each coin result with every spinner result.

Big Picture

What this problem is really about

A compound outcome must record one result from each stage of the experiment. We’ll list the component possibilities, pair every coin result with every spinner result, remove no valid combinations, and compare the final count with the product of the two component counts.
