Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x,

The second number (since it is consecutive) will be = x + 1

The third number (since it is right after the second) = (x+1) + 1 = x + 2

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 15

3x + 3 = 15

3x = 15 - 3

3x = 12

x = 12/3 = 4

If the first number = 4,

Second number will be = 5 [(x+1) = 4+1]

Third number will be = 6 [(x+2) = 4 + 2]

A Family has five children . The probability of having a girl is 1/2. What is the probability of having 2 girls followed by 3 bo

NeTakaya

Probability of having a girl: 1/2
Probability of having another girl right after: 1/2
Probability of having a boy right after: 1/2
Then another boy: 1/2
And a third boy: 1/2

To find compound probabilities, just multiply them together.

$\frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{2*2*2*2*2} =\frac{1}{32} = \boxed{0.031}\ in\ decimal\ form$
