A family has two children. if b represents a boy and g represents a girl, the set of outcomes for the possible genders of the children is s = {bb, bg, gb, gg}, with the oldest child listed first in each pair. let x represent the number of times g occurs. which of the following is the probability distribution, px(x)? a 2-column table has 3 rows. the first column is labeled x with entries 0, 1, 2. the second column is labeled p x (x) with entries 0.25, 0.5, 0.25. a 2-column table has 3 rows. the first column is labeled x with entries 0, 1, 2. the second column is labeled p x (x) with entries 0.33, 0.33, 0.33. a 2-column table has 3 rows. the first column is labeled x with entries 0, 1, 2. the second column is labeled p x (x) with entries 0.25, 0.75, 0. a 2-column table has 3 rows. the first column is labeled x with entries 0, 1, 2. the second column is labeled p x (x) with entries 0, 0.5, 0.5.

Probability helps us to know the chances of an event occurring. The probability distribution of a girl child being born can be drawn as given below.

What is Probability?

The probability helps us to know the chances of an event occurring.

[tex]\rm{Probability=\dfrac{Desired\ Outcomes}{Total\ Number\ of\ outcomes\ possible}[/tex]

As it is given to us that the possible genders of the children,

S = {BB, BG, GB, GG},

And we know that the probability of a girl child can be found using the formula of probability, now, finding the probability of the girl child,

A.) The probability that there is no girl child born,

[tex]\rm{Probability=\dfrac{Desired\ Outcomes}{Total\ Number\ of\ outcomes\ possible}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\rm P(X=0)=\dfrac{\text{Outcomes in which no girl child is born}}{\text{All the possible values}}[/tex]

[tex]\rm P(X=0)=\dfrac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

B.) The probability that there is one girl child is born,

[tex]\rm{Probability=\dfrac{Desired\ Outcomes}{Total\ Number\ of\ outcomes\ possible}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\rm P(X=1)=\dfrac{\text{Outcomes in which one girl child is born}}{\text{All the possible values}}[/tex]

[tex]\rm P(X=1)=\dfrac{2}{4} = 0.5[/tex]

C.) The probability that there is two girl child is born,

[tex]\rm{Probability=\dfrac{Desired\ Outcomes}{Total\ Number\ of\ outcomes\ possible}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\rm P(X=2)=\dfrac{\text{Outcomes in which two girl child is born}}{\text{All the possible values}}[/tex]

[tex]\rm P(X=2)=\dfrac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

The probability distribution of a girl child being born can be drawn as given below.
