A gender-selection technique is designed to increase the likelihood that a baby will be a girl. in the results of the gender-selection technique, 807 births consisted of 418 baby girls and 389 baby boys. in analyzing these results, assume that boys and girls are equally likely. a. find the probability of getting exactly 418 girls in 807 births. b. find the probability of getting 418 or more girls in 807 births. if boys and girls are equally likely, is 418 girls in 807 births unusually high? c. which probability is relevant for trying to determine whether the technique is effective: the result from part (a) or the result from part (b)? d. based on the results, does it appear that the gender-selection technique is effective?

Our star pitcher, foster enlight, can throw a pitch so fast that it gets to the catcher’s mitt before it leaves foster’s fingers! if the team wins a game then the probability that foster was pitching is 0.8 but only if foster had at least one day’s rest since his last pitching assignment. if foster does not have a day off and the team still wins, the probability that foster was pitching drops by half of what it was on the previous day. if the team wins three games in succession from the toronto tachyons and foster pitched in game #2, what is the probability that he pitched in one or more of the other games? (assume that foster did not pitch on the day before the first game of this three game series.)
