Assignment 2: Outcomes and Outcome Spaces
For the experiments defined in Questions 1-4, write the set of all possible outcomes (the outcome space), also note whether the outcomes are equally likely, and whether they are mutually exclusive.
1. Toss a coin three times and record heads or tails on each toss.
2. Assuming that automobile accidents occur randomly, record the number of accidents in NYC on the day you complete this homework.
