Question

Assume that male births and female births are equally likely. The following table shows the probabilities of various numbers of male babies in a random sample of 100 births. A random sample of 100 births has 47 male babies. Is this result significant at the 0.01 level? What is the P-value for this result? Number of males among 100 35 or fewer 40 or fewer 45 or fewer 48 or fewer Probability 0.002 0.028 0.184 0.382 Is this result significant at the 0.01 level? O No O Yes What is the P-value for this result? 0 A. less than 0.184 O B. 0.002 ° C. less than 0.002 O D. less than 0.382

Explanation / Answer

1) hence No

2) option D: less than 0.382
