Answer: 0.3125.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The chance of having a boy is 0.5,
  • the chance of having a girl is also 0.5.

<u>Outcome 1: all boys</u>

boy  boy  boy  boy

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

<u>Outcome 2: first child is a girl, all others are boys</u>

girl   boy   boy   boy

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

<u>Outcome 3: second child is a girl, all others are boys</u>

boy   girl   boy   boy

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

<u>Outcome 4: third child is a girl, all others are boys</u>

boy   boy   girl   boy

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

<u>Outcome 5: fourth child is a girl, all others are boys</u>

boy   boy   boy   girl

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

Therefore,

0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 = 0.0625 * 5 = 0.3125

Which graph does not represent a function
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The graph that does not represent a function is;

The first graph of the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a relationship, rule or law that maps the inputs 'x' the input set 'X' known as the domain, to exactly one output 'y' in the output set 'Y' known as the range

Therefore, a function maps an input to exactly one output

In a graph, the inputs are usually the x-variables, therefore the graph that maps the x-variables (in which an x-variable has) to more than one y-variable is the graph of the circle

In the graph of the circle, we have;

When x = 0 at the origin, y = 0

Similarly

When x = 0 at the maximum point, y = 4

Therefore, the graph of the circle does not represent a function.

Given parallelogram ABCD, find the lengths and angles required.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

x = 3, line AB = 17 ,  and line CD = 17

y = 10, angle A = 70, and angle D = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

well since their the same length you can put them equal to each otheir

5x + 2 = 8x - 7

subtract 5x by both sides to get --> 2 = 3x -7

add 7 to both sides and get --> 9 = 3x

divide 3 by both sides to get x = 3

now plug it back in each equation we started with and get you answers

Same steps for y but different equations

If you like graphing this is for you :D​
Pavel [41]

Answer:

You are trying to find the x-value when the y-value is 2. On the graph, the x-value is -3 when the y-value is 2. So, the x-value when f(x)=2 is -3.
