Determine the sample space illustrated in each situation below.
An experiment consists of asking 2 parents if they are favor of two more years
in the K-12 curriculum. Using "N" for no. "Y" for yes and "U" for undecided
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By coding the answers with letters N (for no), Y (for yes) and U (undecided),

the set of all 9 possible outcomes is the set of all words of the length 2 

written in 3-letter alphabet {N,Y,U}.


In all, there are   = 9 such words

     
    NN, NY, NU, YN, YY, YU, UN, UY, UU .



So, the sample space can be represented by these 9 words

Solved.
