Answer 8

You have two expected outcomes when it comes to the sex of offspring: male or female.

We'll make the event of interest, the "success", be the birth of a girl. We have that the probability of such an isolated incident is \(p=0.51\). This means the probability of a "failure", or birth of a boy, is \(1-p=0.49\).

This type of success/failure probability event can be modeled by the binomial distribution.
