Problem 14BSC

Problem  14BSC

 

Probability of a Run of Four Use a simulation approach to find the probability that when six consecutive babies are born, there is a run of at least four babies of the same sex. Describe the simulation procedure used, and determine whether such runs are unlikely.

Step-by-Step Solution:
Step 1 of 3

Solution  14BSC

Estimated probability is 0.15 which is reasonably close to actual probability 0.15 so such runs are not unlikely.
