Use the range rule of thumb to identify a range of values that áre nốt šignifičánt. The maximum value in this range is O girls. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) The minimum value in this range is O girls. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) Based on the result, is 1 girl in 10 births a significantly low number of girls? Explain. O A. Yes, 1 girl is a significantly low number of girls, because 1 girl is below the range of values that are not significant. O B. No, 1 girl is not a significantly low number of girls, because 1 girl is within the range of values that are not significant. OC. Yes, 1 girl is a significantly low number of girls, because 1 girl is above the range of values that are not significant. O D. Not enough information is given.

The mean is given by

\overline{x} = \sum xp(x)

\overline{x} = 5.044

 

The standard deviation is given by

\sigma =\sqrt{\sum (x-\overline{x})^2p(x)}

\sigma =\sqrt{2.830064}

\sigma =1.6823​​​​​​​
