In a recent poll, 4545% of survey respondents said that, if they only had one child, they would prefer the child to be a boy. Suppose you conducted a survey of 160 randomly selected students on your campus and find that 79 of them would prefer a boy.(a) Use the normal approximation to the binomial to approximate the probability that, in a random sample of 160 students, at least 79 would prefer a boy, assuming the true percentage 45%. (b)...
