This is called independent probability. Just because the first two kids are girls does not change the probability of the next childs gender. 
So it is 1/2 or 50%. 
The chance of all three kids being girls is the same as tossing a coin thrice and having heads all 3 times. Thus it is 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8

The denominator of a fraction is two more than the numerator. If both numerator and denominator are decreased by six, the simpli
ira [324]

Answer:

\dfrac{40}{42}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numerator of the fraction=x

Since the denominator of a fraction is two more than the numerator.

Denominator=x+2

The fraction is therefore:

\dfrac{x}{x+2}

If both numerator and denominator are decreased by six, the fraction becomes:

\dfrac{x-6}{x+2-6}

The simplified result is \dfrac{17}{18}

Therefore:

\dfrac{x-6}{x+2-6}=\dfrac{17}{18}\\$Next, we solve for x\\Cross multiply\\18(x-6)=17(x+2-6)\\18(x-6)=17(x-4)\\Expand the bracket\\18x-108=17x-68\\Collect like terms\\18x-17x=-68+108\\x=40

Substituting x=40 into the initial fraction

\dfrac{x}{x+2}=\dfrac{40}{40+2}=\dfrac{40}{42}

Therefore, the original fraction is \dfrac{40}{42}

What is the value of the expression
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

OA) 14

Step-by-step explanation:

2((7+1)-1)

2(8-1)

You could expand the brackets then simplify or just simplify now. It will be better to simplify now though but I will do both methods.

Simplifying first:

2(7) = 2 × 7 = 14

Our answer is 14 So answer is OA) 14

Expanding first then simplifying:

2(8-1) = 16-2 = 14

Our answer is 14 So answer is OA) 14
