Question: Pregnancy. In 1998, a San Diego reproductive clinic reported 42 live births to 157 women under the age of 38, but only 7 live births for 89 clients aged 38 and older. Is this strong evidence of a difference in the effectiveness of the clinic's methods for older women?
a) Was this an experiment? Explain.
b) Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion in context.
c) If you concluded there was a difference, estimate that difference with a confidence interval and interpret your interval in context.
