Question
A medical publication published a study that examined pregnancies that resulted in the birth of twins. Births were classified as preterm with intervention​ procedures, preterm without​ procedures, or​ term/post-term. They were also classified by the level of prenatal medical care the mother received​ (inadequate, adequate, or​ intensive). The data are summarized in the accompanying table​ (figures are in thousands of​ births). Complete parts a through e below.
 
​a) What percent of these mothers received inadequate medical care during their​ pregnancies?
 
___________​%
​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
 
​b) What percent of all twin births were​ preterm?
 
__________​%
​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
 
​c) Among the mothers who received inadequate medical​ care, what percent of the twin births were​ preterm?
 
______________​%
​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
 
​d) Create an appropriate graph comparing the outcomes of these pregnancies by the level of medical care the mother received
 
​e) Describe the association between these two variables.
 
 
A.
Increasing levels of medical care appears to be associated with an increase in the proportion of​ term/post-term pregnancies.
 
B.
Increasing levels of medical care appears to be associated with a decrease in the proportion of​ term/post-term pregnancies.
 
C.
The distribution of the pregnancy term is roughly the same for all three treatment levels.
 
D.
There does not appear to be a systematic relationship between the two variables.
