1. Erythromycin is a drug that has been proposed to possibly lower the risk of premature delivery. A related area of interest is its association with the incidence of side effects during pregnancy. Assume that 30% of all pregnant women complain of nausea between the 24th and 28th week of pregnancy. Furthermore, suppose that of 200 women who were taking erythromycin regularly during this period, 110 complain of nausea. a. What is the proportion of women in the sample that experience nausea? b. What assumptions are to be checked? c. Test the hypothesis that the incidence rate, % of people who experience nausea for the erythromycin group is the same as the typical pregnant woman. Use alpha=0.01. d. Determine the p-value for the test statistic. Comment in relation to the significance level alpha above.
