Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

  • Event A: The first-born is a boy.
  • Event B: The second-born is a boy.
  • Event C: The third-born is a boy.

Considering one birth, the probability of having a boy is 0.5 or 1/2.

Each birth is independent of the previous one. <em>The probability that independent events occur is equal to the product of the individual probabilities.</em>

P (A and B and C) = P(A).P(B).P(C) = 1/2 . 1/2 . 1/2 = 1/8

A target has a bull’s-eye with a diameter of 2 inches. the outer ring is 1 inch wide. what is the area of the outer ring?
andrew11 [14]
The diameter of the outer ring will be 4 inches since it extends one inch beyond the bull's eye from either side. See the attached image for clarification.

The area of the outer ring can be expressed as:
Area_{outerring} = Area_{outercircle} - Area_{bullseye}
This is because we need to take into account of the space taken up by the bullseye. 

Now we set up our equation:
Area_{outerring} =  \pi r^{2}_{outercircle} -  \pi r^{2}_{bullseye}

Now plug and solve:
Area_{outerring} =  \pi 2^{2} -  \pi 1^{2}
Area_{outerring} =  4\pi -  \pi
Area_{outerring} = 9.42477796
