Respuesta :

In united states the probability that baby being boy is 0.512

P(B) = 0.512

Now among next six selected birth what is probability that atleast one of them is girl.

P(atleast one is girl) = 1 - P(none out of 6 is girl)

= 1 - P(all 6 births are boy)

= 1 - (0.512)^6

= 1 -0.018

P(atleast one is girl) = 0.982

So among the next six randomly selected births in the united states, the probability that at least one of them is a girl is 0.982
