The mean can be found by adding the two numbers and dividing by 2

let the second number be y

(x + y)/2 = 1/2x + 1

solve for y

multiply each side by 2
x + y = 2(1/2x + 1)
distribute
x + y = x + 2
subtract x on both sides
y = 2

ANSWER: the second number is 2

assume the probability of having a boy or a girl is the same. what is the probability of have a boy then a girl then another gir

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of having a boy or a girl is the same, then

the probability of having a boy = a probability of having a girl = 1/2.

Let B denote boy and G denote the girl.

The sample space of having three children is:

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

The probabilities of each of those events is

$Pr(BBB)=Pr(BBG)=Pr(BGB)=Pr(GBB)=\\ \\=Pr(BGG)=Pr(GBG)=Pr(GGB)=Pr(GGG)=\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{8}.$
