  • A. space
  • B. experiment
  • C. sample
  • D. event

Step-by-step solution

In probability, an experiment is any process that can be repeated and has a set of possible outcomes. Tossing a coin 50 times and recording the number of heads fits this definition. A sample space is the set of all possible outcomes, an event is a subset of the sample space, and these terms do not refer to the action itself.
