Solving one step algebra equations

P (even sum)=10/16 or 5/8 or 62.5%
P (odd sum)=6/16 or 3/8 or 37.5%
A coin is flipped and a six sided die is rolled.These 2 are called independent events.
Independent event- The outcome of one event has no effect on the outcome of another event.
Sample Space- All possible outcomes of an experiment.
A coin is flipped and a six sided die is rolled
a)Use a table to list all possible outcomes.
b)How many possible outcomes are there
c)Write the sample space for this combination of events.
Possible outcomes:12
Sample space: (H1) (H2) (H3) (H4) (H5) (H6)
(T1) (T2) (T3) (T4) (T5) (T6)
Find P (heads and even)
3/12=1/4 or 25% or 1:4
