Given
n=10
P(boy)=p=0.5
X=number of boys the family having
Here P remains same for each baby.
n is prefixed.
X follows Binomial distribution with (n=10,p=0.5)
Probability that family having
A) 5 boys and 5 girls
=p(x=5)
=10C5 *(0.5)^5 *(0.5)^5
=0.2461
B) 3 to 7 boys
=p(3 < x< 7)
=p(x=3)+p(x=4)+...+p(x=7)
=0.1172+0.2051+0.2461+0.2051+0.1172
=0.8906
2. There are 10 children in a given family. Assuming that a boy is as likely...
Assuming boy and girl babies are equally likely,find the probability that a family with three children will have exactly 2 boys.
1. Suppose that each child born to a couple is equally likely to be a boy or a girl, inde- having 5 children, compute the probabilities of the following events: (a) All children are of the same gender (b) The 3 eldest are boys and the others girls. (c) Exactly 3 are boys. (d) The 2 oldest are girls. (e) There is at least 1 girl. 3. In a bolt factory machines A, B, C manifacture, respectively 25, 35 and...
1. Suppose that each child born to a couple is equally likely to be a boy or a girl, inde- pendently of the gender distribution of the other children in the family. For a couple having 5 children, compute the probabilities of the following events: (a) All children are of the same gender (b) The 3 eldest are boys and the others girls. (c) Exactly 3 are boys. (d) The 2 oldest are girls. e) There is at least 1...
A young couple falls in love and decides to marry and start a family. Assume that with each birth, they are equally like to have a boy or girl child - and only one at a time (no twins or other multiple births). They decide to keep having children until they have one girl. 5. a. On average, how many children will be born to this family? b. If there are no girls in the first two births, what is...
In a family of 3 children, assume that the probability of a boy birth is 1/2. The probability of no boy in the family is? In a family of 3 children, assume that the probability of a boy birth is 1/2. The expected number of boys born is?
In a family with 2 children, excluding multiple births, what is the probability of having 2 girls? Assume that a girl is as likely as a boy at each birth. The probability of having 2 girls is (Type a fraction. Simplify your answer.)
Assume that the probability of a boy being born is the same as the probability of a girl being born.(a) Find the probability that for family with four children, the two oldest children are girls.(b) Find the probability that for family with four children, exactly two of the children are boys.(c) Find the probability that for family with four children, at least two of the children are boys.
A family has three children. Every child was born to be a boy or girl with 50% chance. The probability of this family having at least one boy is?
Problem 8: 10 points Assume that each newly born child is a boy or a girl with probability Consider a family that has two children 1. What is the probability that there are two girls, given that the eldest child is a girl? B) What is the probability that there are two girls, given that there is at least one girl?
Suppose that at each birth, having a girl is not likely as having a boy. The probability assignments for the number of boys in a child family are approximated empirically from past records and are given in the table. What is the Number of expected number of boys in a 3-child family Boys 2 0.35 0.37 0.16 The expected number of boys in a 3 cred family is (Type an integer or a decimal)
