Question

There are five puppies in a litter. If the probability that a puppy is male is 0.5, what is the probability that at most one puppy in the litter is male?

a. 0.15625
b. 0.1875
c. 0.5
d. 0.8125

Answer 1

I believe C. 0.5 because if the probability that 1 puppy is a male and they are asking what is the probability is that at most one would be male that would seem as the same as saying one male puppy has a 0.5 probability. Hope it help and isn't confusing how I worded it.
