Question

Mingming, Mark's cat, recently got pregnant and is expecting 6 cubs according on her doctor. Mark wants to have a heads up on the distribution of the cubs' sexes. Based on previous studies, the probability of having a male cub is 0.48. To validate this claim, Mark obtained records of 30 mother cats with 6 cubs each and conducted model fitting. With a computed p-value of 0.056, what should be Mark's conclusion at 4% level of significance?


A. There is enough evidence to say that the number of male cubs follows Bin(6, 0.48).
B. There is enough evidence to say that the number of families follows Bin(20, 0.52)
C. There is enough evidence to say that the number of male cubs does not follow Bin(5, 0.52)
D. There is enough evidence to say that the number of families does not follow Bin(20, 0.52)
