In preliminary results from couples using the Gender Choice method of gender selection to increase the likelihood of having a baby girl, 20 couples used the Gender Choice method with the result that 8 of them had baby girls and 12 had baby boys. Given that the sample proportion of girls is 8 20 or 0.4, can the sample data support the claim that the proportion of girls is greater than 0.5? Can any sample proportion less than 0.5 be used to support a claim that the population proportion is greater than 0.5?
