Answer:

The probability of selecting a family with exactly one male child is 1/4 or 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

possible outcomes for the children's genders

{FFFF, FFFM,​ FFMF, FMFF,​ MFFF, MFFM,​ MFMF, MMFF,​ FFMM, FMFM,​ FMMF, FMMM,​ MFMM, MMFM,​ MMMF, MMMM}

= 16

To find,

the probability of selecting a family with exactly one male child

<h3>Probability = favourable outcomes / possible outcomes</h3>

favourable outcomes = {FFFM,​ FFMF, FMFF,​ MFFF}

                                    = 4

Probability = 4 / 16

                  = 1 / 4

                  = 0.25

Answer:

The probability of selecting a family with exactly one male child is 1/16  

Step-by-step explanation:

As given the family of four children. Total possible outcomes are

{FFFF, FFFM,​ FFMF, FMFF,​ MFFF, MFFM,​ MFMF, MMFF,​ FFMM, FMFM,​ FMMF, FMMM,​ MFMM, MMFM,​ MMMF, MMMM}

Possible outcome with one male child are {FFFM,​ FFMF, FMFF,​ MFFF}

Total = 16

With 1 male = 4

Probability (P) of one male = 4/16

P = 1/16

Which choice is equivalent to the expression below?
Phantasy [73]
Hello! The answer should be B: 6i\sqrt{6 . Since the square root is above a negative, an imaginary number would come out. Because of this, you can easily recognize that it would be B. 
However, if you can't, you could use the calculator to check (ignoring the negatives), 6\sqrt{6 is equal to \sqrt{216}. 
The final answer should be B.

What is 2x+3+8x=3x+9x+7
Reika [66]

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

In order to solve this equation, you need to combine like terms

The equation after combining the x terms and the contants will look like this

10x+3=12x+7

Now you have to take 10x away from both sides

3=2x+7

Now bring all the constants to the left side

3-7=2x

Simplify

-4=2x

divide 2 on both sides to get x by itself

x=-2

So, the answer is x=-2
