Question

A card is chosen from a deck consisting of 10 cards numbered 1-10. Determine the sample space of this experiment.

Answer 1

In statistics and probability, sample space is the term used to express the range of the random variables. In this problem, the random variable is the 10 cards which has values from 1 to 10. The range is the difference of the largest and smallest value. Therefore,

Sample space = 10 - 1 = 9
