"Sample Space" refers to the set of all the possible outcomes for some activity.
So we have
{H1,H2, H3, H4, H5, H6, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6}
This makes sense........There are two possibles outcomes for the coin flip and six possible outcomes for the die roll.
So....the number of ways the first thing could happen - 2 - times the number of ways the second thing could happen - 6 - gives us the total number of outcomes = 12.
