You think of each toss as having heads or tails, so there are two choices. If you toss the coin twice you have 4 choices HH, TT, HT and TH. The number of different coin tosses is 2n ordered tosses and n+1 unordered. For example in two tosses, 22=4 ordered tosses if HT is different than TH and if HT is the same as TH then we have 2+1=3 different possible tosses. So using this if we toss a coin 5 times and order does not matter, there are 6 different possibilities. These are HHHHH, TTTTT, HTTTT, HHTTT, HHHTT, HHHHT,HHHHH.

If order matters, there are 25=32 different possible ways to toss a coin 5 times. For example, HHHHT is different than THHHH. I will not write them all out, but you can do it easily by starting with HHHHH and changing each H to a T then two H to T and then 3, etc.

What show an element of the sample space for rolling a die and them tossing a coin?

An element of the sample space for rolling a die and then tossing a coin could be represented as a pair (D, C), where D is the outcome of the die roll and C is the outcome of the coin toss. For example, if you roll a 3 on the die and then get heads on the coin, the element would be (3, Heads). The complete sample space consists of all possible combinations of die rolls (1 through 6) and coin tosses (Heads or Tails), resulting in 12 total outcomes.


What is sample space?

set of all possible result of an experiment or trial is known as sample space and it is denoted by capital s (S). For example Throwing dies we get the sample space of {1,2,3,4,5,6} Tossing a coin we get the sample space, S={H,T}, here H-head and T-tail.
