For 100 births, P(exactly 55 girls) = 0.0485 and P(55 or more girls) = 0.184. Is 55 girls in 100 births a significantly high number of girls? Which probability is relevant to answering that question? Consider a number of girls to be significantly high if the appropriate probability is 0.05 or less. C The relevant probability is P(55 or more girls), so 55 girls in 100 births is not a significantly high number of girls because the relevant probability is greater than 0.05.
