Explain what outcomes of an experiment are. What does it mean to have equally likely outcomes? Provide examples to illustrate.
---------------------
If P(A) = P(B), A and B are equally likely outcomes.
=============================
If a woman is pregnant P(having a boy) = P(having a girl)
they are equally likely events.
