<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Given : The number of children a family plans to have = 7

If the boys and girls are equally likely, then the probability of getting a girl = probability of getting boy = \dfrac{1}{2}=0.5

Now, the probability  that there will be at least one girl​ will be:-

P(atleast one girl) = 1- P(all boys)

=1-(\dfrac{1}{2})^7\\\\=1-0.0078125\\\\=0.9921875

Hence, the probability that there will be at least one girl​ = 0.9921875

Since ,0.9921875 > 0.5  

It means the event is likely to happen.   [∵Any event E is likely to happen if P(E)>0.5]

Therefore, the probability is high enough for the couple to be very confident that they will get at least one girl in 7 ​children.

Hi, I need help with this question. Here is the question: For which data set is the median greater than the mean?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Set 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the median of each set (the median being the number in the middle):

(1) { 4,7,10,13,16} = 10

(2) {8,9,10,18,19} = 10

(3) {8,9,10,11,12} = 10

(4) {1,2,10,11, 12} = 10

Then find the mean of each set (the mean being average of all the numbers, to find the average add up all the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers):

(1) { 4,7,10,13,16} = 10

(2) {8,9,10,18,19} = 12.8

(3) {8,9,10,11,12} = 10

(4) {1,2,10,11, 12} = 7.2

the answer being 12.8 since 12.8 is greater than 10
