The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
When a die is thrown once, there are 6 possible outcomes, as the die has 6 faces numbered from 1 to 6. When the die is thrown twice, the total number of possible sample events can be found by multiplying the outcomes of the first throw by the outcomes of the second throw. Thus, the number of sample events is: \[ 6 \times 6 = 36 \] Therefore, the number of sample events when a die is thrown twice is 36.
The correct option is (D): \(36\)

- Two different dice are tossed together. Find the probability that the product of the number on the top of the dice is 6.
- Two dice are thrown. Defined are the following two events A and B: \[ A = \{(x, y) : x + y = 9\}, \quad B = \{(x, y) : x \neq 3\}, \] where \( (x, y) \) denote a point in the sample space. Check if events \( A \) and \( B \) are independent or mutually exclusive.

- A die with numbers 1 to 6 is biased such that \( P(2) = \frac{3}{10} \) and the probability of other numbers is equal. Find the mean of the number of times number 2 appears on the die, if the die is thrown twice.
