Kelly has a spinner with 4 equal sections. She spins it 2 times. How many possible outcomes are in the sample space of the experiment?

Question 1 options:

4


8


12


16

Respuesta :

ANSWER

The sample space is 16

EXPLANATION


The number of sample space in an event is given by


[tex]4^{n}[/tex] where n is the number of times we spin the spinner.


Since the spinner has 4 equal sections that is why we write 4 as the base.


Hence the number of sample space is

[tex]4^{2}=16[/tex]


The correct answer is option D
