4.2) Consider the roll of two four-sided fair die, with sides numbered 1,2,3, and 4.

(a) Compute the size of the sample space. Show work and reasoning.

(b) List the sample points that comprise the sample space.

(c) List the sample points that sum to six.

(d) Compute the probability of getting a sum of six using Cardano’s method.

(e) Pick one of your sample points. How does that sample point correspond to a “point in space?” How many dimensions does that space have? What are the coordinates of that point?

Example 1 A fair six-sided die is rolled six times. If the face numbered k is the outcome on roll k for k=1, 2, ..., 6, we say that a match has occurred. The experiment is called a success if at least one match occurs during the six trials. Otherwise, the experiment is called a failure. The sample space S={success, failure} The event A happens when the match happens. A= {success} Assign a value to P(A) Simulate the experiment on...
