In a recent​ poll, 45​% of survey respondents said​ that, if they only had one​ child, they would prefer the child to be a boy. Suppose you conducted a survey of 170 randomly selected students on your campus and find that 84of them would prefer a boy.   ​(a) Use the normal approximation to the binomial to approximate the probability​ that, in a random sample of 170​students, at least 84would prefer a​ boy, assuming the true percentage is 45​%. ​(b) Does this result contradict the​ poll? Explain.   ​(a) The probability that at least 84 students would prefer a boy is
