3Question 3.
What is a random experiment?
- A process with uncertain outcomes
- A predetermined event

4Question 4.
True or False: A sample space includes only the favorable outcomes.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about all results from an experiment, not just the ones you want.
Question 5.
You conduct an experiment where you measure the temperature at various times of the day. Define the sample space and identify if this is a finite or infinite experiment.
Show hintHide hint
Think about the scale of temperature and how many measurable points you could have.
Question 6.
Suppose you roll three dice and look for the event of getting at least one '1'. What is the probability of this event? Use your knowledge of complementary events.
Show hintHide hint
Try to find the probability of the opposite event first to make calculations easier.
