8. Let us denote boys and girls by B and G.

(i) The desired sample space whether a boy or girl are the children according to their birth.

S = {BB, BG, GB, GG}

(ii) A family of two children can be two girls, one girl or no girl. So, the desired sample space is S = {0, 1, 2}

z ˜ = i z 2 + z 2 z

z + Z ¯ = z 2 ( i + 1 )

z + Z ¯ = z 2 ( i + 1 ) Let z be equal to (x + iy)

(x + iy) + (x – iy) = (x + iy)2 (i + 1)

2 x = ( x 2 y 2 + 2 i x y ) ( i + 1 )
