Questions: The accompanying table describes results from groups of 8 births from 8 different sets of parents. The random variable x represents the number of girls among 8 children. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. B. Since the probability of getting 1 girl is the result from part (a), this is the relevant probability. C. Since the probability of getting more than 1 girl is the complement of the result from part (b), this is the relevant D. Since the probability of getting 0 girls is less likely than getting 1 girl, the result from part (a) is the relevant prob d. Is 1 a significantly low number of girls in 8 births? Why or why not? Use 0.05 as the threshold for a significant event. A. Yes, since the appropriate probability is less than 0.05 , it is a significantly low number. B. Yes, since the appropriate probability is greater than 0.05 , it is a significantly low number. C. No, since the appropriate probability is greater than 0.05 , it is not a significantly low number. D. No, since the appropriate probability is less than 0.05 , it is not a significantly low number. Number of Girls x P(x) 0 0.002 1 0.005 2 0.114 3 0.239 4 0.280 5 0.239 6 0.114 7 0.005 8 0.002
