Sequence A: BB8888 Sequence B: GBGBGB Choose the correct answer below and till in any answer boxes in your choice Type integers or simplified fractions.) OA. Sequence A is more likely, because it has a probability of while Sequence B only has a probability of B. Sequence B is more likely, because it has a probabilityofwhile Sequence A only has a 0c. The two sequences are equaly lkety because they both have a probability of prot ablity ofl . Click to select and onter your answer(s)

Explanation / Answer

Solution:

For sequence A BBBBBB
The probability of a girl is 0 and the
probability of a boy is 1
For sequence B GBGBGB
The probability of a girl is 3/6 = 0.5
and a boy is 3/6 = 0.5

B. Sequence B is more likely, because it has a probability of 0.5 while Sequence A only has a probability of 0.5.
