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
The ages are consecutive even numbers.
The youngest child is (x+3) years old.
Every even number is 2 more than the one before it.
So the three ages are
(x + 3), (x + 5), and (x + 7).
Their sum is x+3 + x+5 + x+7 = 3x + 15
But we're told that their sum is 42, so we can write
3x + 15 = 42 <== the equation
Subtract 15 from each side: 3x = 27
Divide each side by 3 : x = 9 <== the solution
So the three ages are 12, 14, and 16.
The oldest child is 16 years old.
Answer:
5.5 or 5.50.
Step-by-step explanation:
2.75 x 3 = 8.25. that minus 2.75 = 5.50.
