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.
The answer in decimal form should be 5.3 if you round it up
To factor quadratic equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=y, you must find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions.
jk=ac and j+k=b
The you replace the single linear term bx with jx and kx. Finally then you factor the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms. In this problem...
2k^2-5k-18=0
2k^2+4k-9k-18=0
2k(k+2)-9(k+2)=0
(2k-9)(k+2)=0
so k=-2 and 9/2
k=(-2, 4.5)
Well you would have to round this 5 and above goes up. Since 1 is lower than 5 that would leave you at 6.37. 7 rounds up so that would change to 6.4. Lastly 4 would round down, So that would leave you with 6. Now 6 is the simplest form but if your looking for rounded to the nearest tenth the answer would be 6.4. If your looking for rounded to the nearest 100th place 6.37. But over all simplest form is 6.
BO is double that of DO. In other words, BO is two times longer than DO. The answer is choice B
For example, if DO were 3 units long, then BO would be 6 units long (2*3 = 6). This works because the triangles DCO and BAO are similar triangles. The corresponding sides are in the same ratio or proportion to one another. The larger triangle (BAO) has sides that are twice as long as the smaller triangle's (DCO) corresponding sides.
Side note: we can prove the triangles to be similar using the AA (angle angle) similarity theorem. The first pair of angles are the vertical angles DOC and BOA which are congruent to each other.The second pair is CDB and ABD which are congruent by the alternate interior angle theorem.
