Question 970795: You are going to pull two cards from a standard deck of 52 cards (without replacemnet) and record whether you got a face card (jack,queen,king, or ace) or a number card (2-10). Which list of events correctly makes up the sample space?

The sample space is the list of all possible outcomes.
From two choices that are asked for, you have four possibilities here--face card=F, number card=N
FF
FN
NF
NN
The probabilities will change after 1 card is drawn, because the number of cards has changed, but these are the outcomes.
