A lottery uses 4 urns containing chips 0 to 9. One chip is selected at random from each urn. How many sample points are in the sample space?
There are 10 outcomes per urn.
Sample space = 10*10*10*10
since the outcome from each urn is independent of the others.
1000
To determine the total number of sample points in the sample space, you need to multiply the number of possible outcomes from each urn.
Since each urn contains chips numbered 0 to 9, there are 10 possible outcomes for each urn.
Thus, the total number of sample points in the sample space is calculated as follows:
10 (options for the first urn) * 10 (options for the second urn) * 10 (options for the third urn) * 10 (options for the fourth urn)
= 10 * 10 * 10 * 10
= 10,000
Therefore, there are 10,000 sample points in the sample space.
To determine the number of sample points in the sample space, you need to consider the number of possible outcomes for each urn and multiply them together.
In this scenario, each urn contains chips numbered from 0 to 9. Since there are four urns, each with 10 possible chips, the number of outcomes for each urn is 10.
To calculate the total number of sample points in the sample space, you multiply the number of outcomes for each urn.
10 * 10 * 10 * 10 = 10,000
Therefore, there are 10,000 sample points in the sample space.
