(a) = 49/207 = 0.237, 1 - = 0.763, n = 207, = 0.10
The Zcritical (2 tail) for = 0.10, is 1.645
The Confidence Interval is given by ME, where
The Lower Limit = 0.237 - 0486 = 0.1884 0.188 ( in terms of percentage = 18.84%)
The Upper Limit = 0.237 + 0.0486 = 0.2856 0.286 ( in terms of percentage =28.56%)
The Confidence Interval is (0.188 , 0.286)
_____________________________________________
(b) 90% confidence level means that around 90% of confidence interval of size 207 will contain the true population proportion of women aged less than 40 and who were previously unable to conceive but have conceived in this clinic.
_______________________________________________
(c) No, It would not be misleading to advertise a 25% success rate since the value of 25% lies within the limits of the confidence interval (0.188 and 0.286)
_______________________________________________
(d) Sample size required when ME is half of the present value, all other conditions remaining the same.
The ME = Zcritical * SQRT(p * q/n).
Squaring and solving, n = (Zc/ME)2 * p * q
Here ME = 0.0486/2 = 0.0243, p = 0.237, q = 0.763
The Zc at = 0.10 is 1.645
Therefore n = (1.645/0.0243)2 * 0.237 * 0.763 = 828.69
Therefore n = 829 (Rounding to the nearest Integer)

(e) The concern here is that we are having to assume that this sample would be less that 10% of all such births in all the clinics.
Secondly There are only 40 such birth in the clinic and we have taken all of them into consideration, therefore this cannot be considered asa simple random sample.

In 2003, a reproductive clinic reported 44 live births to 165 women under the age of 38, but only 6 live births for 78 clients aged 38 and older. Is there evidence of a difference in the effectiveness of the clinic's methods for older women? 1. find z= 2. find P-value 3. if you could conclude that there was difference, estimate that difference, p1-p2, with a 90% confidence interval... what is it (round 3 decimal places) 4. interpret your interval...
