a)
Here, n = 5, p = 0.5, (1 - p) = 0.5 and x = 1
As per binomial distribution formula P(X = x) = nCx * p^x * (1 -
p)^(n - x)
We need to calculate P(X <= 1).
P(X <= 1) = (5C0 * 0.5^0 * 0.5^5) + (5C1 * 0.5^1 * 0.5^4)
P(X <= 1) = 0.0313 + 0.1563
P(X <= 1) = 0.1876
probability = 1 - 0.1876 = 0.8124
b)
P(All same gender) = 0.5^5 + 0.5^5 = 0.0625

2) What is the probability that a couple will have a total of 8 children, 5 boys and 3 girls? 3) What is the probability that a couple will have five children: the oldest a boy, the next two girls, the fourth child a boy, and the youngest a girl.
Please answer both questions
If a couple plans to have 5 children, what is the probability that there will be at least one boy? Assume boys and girls are equally likely. Is that probability high enough for the couple to be very confident that they will get at least one boy in 5 children? The probability is (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)
A couple wants to have 2 boys and 2 girls. They will continuous to have children until they have reached the goal. Assuming that the probability that they have 54% chance to have a boy and 46% chance to have a girl in every pregnancy. No twin or more are possible. Assuming that their goal is possible and has been fulfilled today! a. What is the probability that they have exactly two boys? b. What is the probability that they...
A couple plans to have two children. Assume the probability of a girl is 0.50. a) List the set of all the possible outcomes in having two children b) What is the probability that the couple has one boy and one girl? c) What is the probability that the couple will have at least one girl? d) What is the probability that the couple will have no girls?
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
A couple wants to have 3 children. What is the probability they have at least 1 boy? PLEASE write down each step and show how you got your answer. Also explain each step.
What is the probability that a family with three children does not have three children of the same gender? Assume boys and girls are equally likely. List all possible outcome for this event!
Find the probability that when a couple has five children, at least one of them is a boy. (Assume that boys and girls are equally likely)The probability is _______ that at least one of the five children is a boy.
Example a) On this example we will examine the probability a couple who has 8 children and has exactly 5 boys. b) Next we will look at the probability that they have more than 5 boys. c) Finally we will look at the probability that they have at most 5 boys. Assume a .5 chance of having a boy. Solution can be solved using excel. a) On this example we will examine the probability a couple who has 8 children...
