Baby boys have a 25% chance of being color blind, while baby girls only have a 5% chance of being color blind. Based on genetic testing, a couple found that the probability of them having a baby boy is 0.45. a) What is the probability that they have a baby girl who is not color blind?

Respuesta :

Answer:

0.5225 or 52.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The couple's chance of having a baby boy is 45% (P(boy) = 0.45). This means there's a 55% chance of having a baby girl since it's the only other option (1 - P(boy) = 0.55). Now, when we consider color blindness, the probability of a baby girl not being color blind is 95% (1 - 0.05 = 0.95).

So, to put it all together, there's about a 52.25% (0.5225) chance that the couple will have a baby girl who is not color blind.
