Previous problemNext problem

Verified step by step guidance

Understand the definition of probability: Probability measures how likely an event is to occur, ranging from 0 to 1.

Recall that an event with probability 0 means it cannot happen under any circumstance; such an event is called 'impossible'.

Recall that an event with probability 1 means it will happen for sure; such an event is called 'certain'.

Match these definitions to the given options: 'impossible' corresponds to probability 0, and 'certain' corresponds to probability 1.

Therefore, the correct completion is: An event with a probability of 0 is 'impossible', and an event with a probability of 1 is 'certain'.

YSORT Gender Selection MicroSort’s YSORT gender selection technique is designed to increase the likelihood that a baby will be a boy. At one point before clinical trials of the YSORT gender selection technique were discontinued, 291 births consisted of 239 baby boys and 52 baby girls (based on data from the Genetics & IVF Institute). Based on these results, what is the probability of a boy born to a couple using MicroSort’s YSORT method? Does it appear that the technique is effective in increasing the likelihood that a baby will be a boy?

Mendelian Genetics When Mendel conducted his famous genetics experiments with peas, one sample of offspring consisted of 428 green peas and 152 yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the expected value of as Mendel claimed?
