Answer: 0.9738

Step-by-step explanation:

This is solved by the probability distribution formula for random variables where probability of determining random variable X is given by

P(X=r) = nCr * p^r * q^n-r

Where n = number of sample = 6

p = probability of success = 0.545

q = 1-p = 0.455

r = possible outcome from number of sample.

If 6 random births are chosen, Probability that at least 1 of them is a girl = 1 -[probability that none of them is a girl] = 1 - [probability that all 6 kids are boys]

Probability that all 6 kids are boys = 6C6 * 0.545^6 * 0.455^0 = 0.0262

Probability that at least one is a girl = 1 - 0.0262 = 0.9738.

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Population = 75,342 households

Sample = 400 randomly selected households

The percentage who live in a single household unit = Parameter

The average of 2.9 person per household of all households in the city = parameter

The $65,000 median family income of all the households in the city = Parameter

Step-by-step explanation:

The population refers to all the entire elements, observations or subject which fits into a particular study. In the scenario above, the entire household in the city of study. That is, the 75,342 households.

The sample is the subset of the population which is a smaller set of observation meant to be representative of the larger population. The sample here is the 400 randomly selected households.

Parameter differs from statistics in that numerical estimates or calculations obtained from the population is called the parameter while the numerical characteristics derived from the sample is called statistic.
