Answer:

1) \text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=\frac{3}{4}

2) \text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=\frac{3}{8}

3) \text{P(at least two girls)}=\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mr. and Mrs. Romero are expecting triplets. Suppose the chance of each child being a boy is 50% and of being a girl is 50%.

To  Find : The probability of each event.  

1) P(at least one boy and one girl)

2) P(two boys and one girl)

3) P(at least two girls)        

Solution :

Let's represent a boy with B and a girl with G

Mr. and Mrs. Romero are expecting triplets.

The possibility of having triplet is

BBB, BBG, BGB, BGG, GBB, GBG, GGB, GGG

Total outcome = 8

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favorable outcome}}{\text{Total number of outcome}}

1) P(at least one boy and one girl)

Favorable outcome =  BBG, BGB, BGG, GBB, GBG, GGB=6

\text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=\frac{6}{8}

\text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=\frac{3}{4}

2) P(at least one boy and one girl)

Favorable outcome =  BBG, BGB, GBB=3

\text{P(at least one boy and one girl)}=\frac{3}{8}

3) P(at least two girls)

Favorable outcome = BGG, GBG, GGB, GGG=4

\text{P(at least two girls)}=\frac{4}{8}

\text{P(at least two girls)}=\frac{1}{2}

<span>Let's represent a boy with B and a girl with G

For example BBB is three boys and BGB is two boys and one girl.

These are all the possibilities

1) BBB</span>

<span>2) BBG

3) BGB</span>

<span>4) BGG

5) GBB</span>

6) GBG

<span>
7) GGB</span>

<span>8) GGG

There is in total 8 different possibilities.

Now let's analyze the conditions

p (at least one boy and one girl)

That excludes only BBB and GGG so they are 6 possibilities out of 8

p = 6/8 = 3/4

p (two boys and one girl).

Those are 3 out of 8

p = 3/8

p (at least two girls)

Those are 3 (two girls) + 1(three girls) = 4</span>

P = 4/8 = 1/2

Please, let me know if this was satisfactory for you.

Leni [432]

Answer:

CI=P*(1 + R/100)^18

A=(CI + P) = P(1+R/100)^18

13500/P=1(100+R/100)^18

A/P=(100+R/100)^18

A/P=(100+R/100)^18

A=13500$        as (750 * 18)

(13500)/P=(1 +1.15/100)18

(13500)/P=(1+1.15/100)18

13500=((1.0115)^18

P=R$10989.02

Step-by-step explanation:

CI=Compound Interest

A=Amount

P=Principal.

Which equation has a graph that is a parabola with a vertex at (–2, 0)?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The vertex of a quadratic equation corresponds to the point where the maximum or minimum value is located.

If the function has a positive leading coefficient, the vertex corresponds to the minimum value.

If it has a negative leading coefficient,  the vertex corresponds to the maximum valuevalue

If the vertex is located at

(–2, 0)

The possibilities are

y =  (x-2)^2

or,

y = - (x-2)^2

Since the problem tells us the answer, we adopt the positive values

Answer:

y =  (x-2)^2
