What does sample space mean in math?

A sample space is the set of all possible outcomes from an experiment..


How do you determine an adequate sample size?

A sample size is needed whenever you conduct an experiment. How you determine an adequate sample size depends on the scope of what you're testing, such as medications.

What is a probability of an event?

Lets first start by defining some terms:Probability (P) in statistics is defined as the chance of an event occurring.Probability experiment is a chance process that leads to results called outcomes.An outcome is the result of a single trial of a probability experiment.A sample set is the set of all possible outcomes of a probability experiment.An event consists of a set of outcomes of a probability experiment. An event can be one outcome or more than one outcome. The event can be anything from flipping a coin, to rolling a die, to picking a card.The probability of any event (E) is:(# of outcomes in E) / (total # of outcomes in sample space)For example: Find the probability a die is rolled and you get a 4?We know that there are 6 possibilities when rolling a die. We can either rolled a 1, or a 2, or a 3, or a 4, or a 5, or a 6.Using the equation above:P(rolling a 4)= 1/6The event in this case is rolling a 4.

The of all possible outcomes for an event is called the sample space?

The set of all possible outcomes of an experment is called the sample space. Suppose an experiment consists of a coin 2 times. Let H represents heads and T represent tails. The sample space for this experiment is {HH,TT,HT,TH}. There are 4 elements in the sample space.

A control sample is the experiment under regular conditions. An experimental sample is the experiment in which different variables are changed.


How does sample size affect the validity of an experiment?

The sample size has no effect on the validity of an experiment: instead, it is the experimental procedure and integrity of the experimenters.The sample size can affect conclusions that may be drawn from an experiment. The larger the sample is, the more reliable these conclusions are.

Define a random experiment sample space simple event and compound event?

Experiment cannot be predicted in advance is RANDOM EXPERIMENT...... set of all possible outcomes. outcome that can be predicted with certainity. when an experiment performed repeatedly- called trial. Ex. If a coin is tossed,we can't say,whetefr head or tail will appear .so it is a Random Experiment. Sample Space:-- Possible outcomes of a random experiment.. set of all posssible outcomes.. denoted by--- "S". and no. of elements is denoted by n(s). ex. In throwing a dice ,the number that appears at top is any one of 1,2,3,4,5,6 ,So here: S= 1,2,3,4,5,6 n(s) --- 6
