When 2 births are randomly selected, the sample space for genders is bb, bg, gb and gg. Assume that those 4 outcomes are equally likely. Construct a table that describes the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of girls from 2 births. Dies the mean of the sample proportions equal the proportion of girls in 2 births? Does the result suggest that a sample proportion is an unbiased estimator of a population proportion? For the entire population, assume the probability of having a boy is 1/2, the probability of having s girl is 1/2 and this is not affected by how many boys or girls have previously been born. Determine the probabilities of each sample proportion, (type integers or simplified fractions)
