Step-by-step explanation:
The gender of a child which is either a boy or a girl is determined by the XX-chromosomes, or XY-chromosomes.
Since the couple plan to have 5 children, the chance of a child being a boy is equal to the chance of it being a girl - the chances are 50/50.
What we do to achieve our aim is to run a simulation that would add an X or Y to an X for all 5 children.
Doing this 125 times, we obtain the number of trials we desire.
For each trial, we get for each child, C:
C1: X + (X or Y)
C2: X + (X or Y)
C3: X + (X or Y)
C4: X + (X or Y)
C5: X + (X or Y)
Since the chance of having an X is equal to the chance of having a Y, they equal probability, which is 0.5 for each.
Answer:
Choice b.
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The highest power of the variable
in this polynomial is
. In other words, this polynomial is quadratic.
It is thus possible to apply the quadratic formula to find the "roots" of this polynomial. (A root of a polynomial is a value of the variable that would set the polynomial to
.)
After finding these roots, it would be possible to factorize this polynomial using the Factor Theorem.
Apply the quadratic formula to find the two roots that would set this quadratic polynomial to
. The discriminant of this polynomial is
.
.
Similarly:
.
By the Factor Theorem, if
is a root of a polynomial, then
would be a factor of that polynomial. Note the minus sign between
and
.
- The root
corresponds to the factor
, which simplifies to
. - The root
corresponds to the factor
, which simplifies to
.
Verify that
indeed expands to the original polynomial:
.
