Question:
Using data from any year or years of your choice in the last 10 years, determine an empirical value that represents the probability that a randomly chosen newborn baby in the U.S. will be female. Locate the necessary data on the internet from a reliable site and submit the relevant URLs along with your answer. (NOTE: We want an empirical probability—don’t assume that there is a 50-50 chance of newborns being female.) Then to assist the long-range plans of advertisement agencies, use your estimated probability value to predict the number of female U.S. births that will occur in 2019 (assume that the total number of births in 2019 is estimated to be around 3,920,000.) Make a chart to the right using the model above and give URL's used. Type a summary of your findings in the box below. (Hint--would encourage use of CDC's "WONDER" online database search engine to find appropriate data.)
