Question: A standard number cube is rolled 5 times. The die lands on 1, 3, 2, 3, and 4. Harriet argues the sample space of the next roll is 1, 2, 3, and 4 because that has been the result of her previous rolls. Find Harriet’s error and correct it. Responses
Harriet's error is that she assumed the sample space of the next roll is determined by her previous rolls. The sample space for a standard number cube (a six-sided die) is always the same, regardless of the previous outcomes. A standard number cube has six sides, numbered 1 through 6. The probability of each number appearing on a roll is independent of any previous rolls. Therefore, the correct sample space for the next roll is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.
