A couple is planning on having three children. You may assume that one child is born at a time (no twins or triplets), that each child was born two years apart from one another, and that it is equally likely for the couple to have a boy or a girl. Construct a tree diagram and show the sample space. a) What is the probability that the oldest child is a girl and the two younger children are boys? b) What...
2. Suppose that a family is going to keep having children until they have at least one girl. Further suppose we can model successive births as boy and one independent trials with p P(girl) and P(boy) = 1 - p. Let Y denote the total number of children in the family. Compute, for y 2, (i) the probability that the first boy born is the y-th child born; [2] (ii the probability that the first girl born is the y-th...
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 couple intends to have four children. Assume that having a boy and girl is equally likely event.a) List sample spaceb) Find the probability that couple has two boys and two girls; c) Find the probability that couple has at least one boy
Discrete Math: A couple is planning to have a family. Let us assume that the probability of having a girl is 0.48 and a boy is 0.52, and that the gender of this couple's children are pairwise independent. They want to have at least one girl and at least one boy. At the same time, they know that raising too many kids is difficult. So here's what they plan to do: they'll keep trying to have children until they have...
