Question

If a couple were planning to have three children, the sample space summarizing the gender outcomes would be: bbb, bbg, bgb, gbb, gbg, ggb, ggg a. Construct a similar sample space for the possible eye color outcomes (using b for blue-eyed and g for green-eyed) of two children. b. Assuming that the outcomes listed in part (a) were equally likely, find the probability of getting two green-eyed children. c. Find the probability of getting exactly one blue-eyed child and one green-eyed child. a. What is the sample space? (Use a comma to separate answers as needed.) b. Find the probability of getting two green-eyed children (Type an exact answer) c. Find the probability of getting one blue-eyed child and one green-eyed child. (Type an exact answer.)

Explanation / Answer

A) sample space s : bb,gg,bg,gb

B) Probability of getting two green eyed children = P(gg) = 1/4 = 0.25

C) Probability of getting one blue eyed child and one green eyed child

= P(gb or bg) = 2/4 = 0.5
