Question

55 students are selected at random from an engineering class and classified as

male or female. List the elements of sample space S1 using the letter M for male

F for female. Define a second sample space S2 Where the elements represent the

number of females selected.

Answer 1

$S_1$ = {(55 $\times$ M and 0 $\times$ F),

(55-1 $\times$ M and 1 $\times$ F),

(55-2 $\times$ M and 2 $\times$ F),…

(0 $\times$ M and 55 $\times$ F)}

$S_2$ = {0,1,2,…,53,54,55}
