Step-by-step solution

Content Introduction

A set of outcomes of a random experiment can be defined as an event in probability. All possible outcomes of an experiment are represented by the sample space. In probability, there are various different sorts of events.

Content Explanation

There are two events,

C = Californians (registered voters) preferring life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder.

L = Latino Californians.

Given that,

$$\begin{gathered} P\left(C\right)=0.48 \\ P\left(L\right)=0.376 \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, L AND C denotes that the person chosen is Latino Californian life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder
