The sample space is\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "{ B, B, B, B, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, B, B, B, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, B, B, G, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, B, B, G, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, B, G, B, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, B, G, B, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, B, G, G, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, B, G, G, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, G, B, B, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, G, B, B, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, G, B, G, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, G, B, G, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, G, G, B, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, G, G, B, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, G, G, G, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ B, G, G, G, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, B, B, B, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, B, B, B, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, B, B, G, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, B, B, G, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, B, G, B, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, B, G, B, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, B, G, G, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, B, G, G, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, G, B, B, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, G, B, B, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, G, B, G, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, G, B, G, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, G, G, B, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, G, G, B, G }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, G, G, G, B }
\n" ); document.write( "{ G, G, G, G, G }\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Notice there are 2^5 = 32 ways to have 5 children.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Note: an element like \"{ G, B, G, B, B }\" tells us that the first child is a girl, the second is a boy, the third is a girl, and the last two kids are boys.\r
