The all possible eight outcomes of boy or girl birth when a couple have three children is

(GBB) , (GBG), (GGB) , (GGG), (BBG), (BGB), (BGG), (BBB)

Where B represents boy and G represents Girl

The probability that having exactly 1 girl is

= Number of outcomes with one girl / Total numbers of outcomes

Now Number of outcomes with only one girl = GBB, BGB, BBG = 3

So the probability will be

The probability that having exactly 1 girl is = 3/8 = 0.375

The probability that when a couple has three​ children, there is exactly 1 girl is 0.375

In a cave, a stalactite gets 44 millimeters longer each year. this year it is 72 centimeters long. how many years until it is 1
iragen [17]

Answer:

6.36 years (the .36 repeats), so rounded is 6.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I'm going to convert all measurements to meters.

Since 1000 mm = 1 m, divide 44 by 1000.

44/1000 = 0.044 m

Since 100 cm = 1 m, divide 72 by 100.

72/100 = 0.72 m

Next, I'm going to setup an equation using y = mx + b.

b is the beginning amount which is 0.72.

m in the equation represents the rate which is 0.044.

y represents the total which is 1.

Plugin the numbers and solve for x.

1 = 0.044x + 0.72

1 - 0.72 = 0.044x + 0.72 - 0.72

0.28 = 0.044x

0.28/0.044 = 0.044x/0.044

6.36 = x
