No, on two counts.
The sample space is the possible outcomes of the experiment, not the NUMBER of possible outcomes. And, as far as this experiment is concerned, there is no way to distinguish between the two occurrences of b and i. So there are, in fact, only 9 possible outcomes. Two of these outcomes have a higher probability but that is a different matter.
The sample space is {p, r , o , b, a, i, l, t, y} a set of cardinality 9.

What is the sample space for choosing a letter from the word mathematics?
The sample space is {m, a, t, h, e, i, c, s} which, curiously, is also the sample space for choosing a letter from my user name!
What is the probability when choosing a letter from the word space and choosing a consonant from the word math?
Probability of choosing a consonant from math = 3/4
What is the probability of choosing an odd number?
If you have an equal amount of odd and even numbers in a determined sample space, the probability of choosing and odd number is 1/2 (.5).
What is the probability of getting 2 prime nos from 1 to 20?
In the sample space [1,20], there are 8 prime numbers, [2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19]. The probability, then, of randomly choosing a prime number in the sample space [1,20] is (8 in 20), or (2 in 5), or 0.4. The probability of choosing two of them is (8 in 20) times (7 in 19) which is (56 in 1064) or (7 in 133) or about 0.05263.

A probability distribution is an equation that?
Associates a particulare probability of occurrence with each outcome in the sample space.
What type of probability used sample spaces to determine the numerical probability that an event will occur?
Discrete probability. It helps if the all the outcomes in the sample space are equally probable but that is not a necessity.
The set of all possible outcomes in a probability experiment?
sample space
