Certain birth defects and syndromes are polygenetic in nature. Typically, the chance that an offspring will be born with a polygenetic affliction is small. However, once an offspring is born with the affliction, the probability that future offspring of the same parents will be born with the same affliction increases. Let's assume that the probability of a child being born with affliction A is 0.005. If a child is born with this affliction, the probability of a future child being born with the same affliction becomes 0.03. Are the events of the births of two children in the same family with affliction A independent? Yes No A couple plans to have one child. Determine the probability that the child will be born with this affliction. 0.005 (Type an integer or a decimal.) Another couple plans to have two children. Determine the probability that both children will be born with the affliction. 0.00015 (Type an integer or a decimal.) Determine the probability that the first will be born with the affliction and the second will not. 0.00485 (Type an integer or a decimal.) Determine the probabilily that the first will not be born with the affliction and the second will. 0.004975 (Type an integer or a decimal) Determine the probabilily that neither will be born with the affliction. (Type an integer or a decimal.)
