Question

The probabilty of being born a male is 0.466. The probabilty of being born in north america is 0.153846. The probabilty of being born in an urban location is 0.3571428. Find the exact probabilty that a baby will be born a male, in North America, in an urban location

Answer 1

Answer:0.0256

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Probability of being a male is $P_1=0.466$

Probability of being born in america is $P_2=0.153846$

Probabilty of being born in an urban location is $P_3=0.3571428$

So probabilty of that a baby will be born a male,in North america, in an urban area=P

Since, $P_1, P_2, P_3$ are independent of each other therefore

$P=P_1\times P_2\times P_3$

$P=(0.466)\times (0.153846)\times (0.3571428)$

$P=0.02560$
