A family that has two children, both are girls, given that at least one of them is a girl, has probability of 1/2 or 50%.

Probability is the likelihood of an event to occur. The value is from 0 to 1 or from 0% to 100%.

For an experiment having n number of outcomes, the number of favorable outcomes can be denoted by x. The formula to calculate the probability of an event is as follows.

Probability (Event) = Favorable Outcomes/Total Outcomes = x/n

Given that at least one of the two children is a girl, then we are sure that one must be a girl. The other child will either be a boy or a girl. The possible outcomes could have been:

(G, G) and (G, B)

Probability (Event) = Favorable Outcomes/Total Outcomes = x/n = 1/2 = 50%

The perimeter of a triangle is 133 inches. If one side of the triangle is five more than the shortest side, and the longest side
barxatty [35]

133=x + (x+5) + (x+14)

133 = 3x+19

3x=114

x= 114/3 =38

5+38 =43

38+14 =52

check: 38 +43 +52 = 133

3 sides are : 38, 43 & 52

Katarina [22]
We are given with a bag containing 13 dark chocolates, 16 white chocolates, and 11 milk chocolates. hence the sample space is 13 + 16 + 11 equal to 40 chocolates. The <span> probability that she randomly picks a white chocolate is 16/40 or 2/5 and that she picks a milk chocolate is 11/40. Hence the probability of picking either is (16+11) /40 equal to 27/40</span>

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

- 2x - 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 3(4x + 5) - 2(- 5x + 8)

Multiply the terms in the first parenthesis by - 3 and the terms in the second parenthesis by - 2

= - 12x - 15 + 10x - 16 ← collect like terms

= (- 12x + 10x) + (- 15 - 16)

= - 2x - 31
