In a sample of 50,001st born babies eight were found to have a certain syndrome. find the empirical probability that a family's first child will be born with this syndrome

Empirical Probability that a family's first child will be born with this syndrome is 0.0002.

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical Probability of an event E is defined

Let E: Event that the child born has a certain syndrome.

Now here, total number of times experiments performed  = 50,000

The number of favorable outcome = 1

Hence, here the Empirical Probability that a family's first child will be born with this syndrome is 0.0002.

a is the correct

step-by-step explanation:

no, her answer is not correct.   we square the lengths of all sides and then determine whether the pythagorean theorem holds here:

9² + 15² = 306.   this is not equal to the square of the longest side ( that square being 395.   answer c is correct.
