Sample space (s) - set of all possible outcomes of that experiment. Event - collection (subset) or outcomes contained in the sample space s. Simple event - an event that consists of exactly one outcome. Compound event - an event that consists of exactly one outcome. Event a occurs if the resulting experimental outcome is contained in a. A= the event that exactly one of the three vehicles turns right = C = the event that all three vehicles turn in the same direction = occurred and events b. It is possible for a sample space to have an infinite number of outcomes and c. ) - set of all outcomes in a that are not contained in a. A b outcomes that are in both a and b. Null event, the event consisting of no outcomes. A or b - is the event consisting of all outcomes. ) - a and b - is the event consisting of all.
