In a recent year, about 34% of all infants born in a country were conceived through in-vitro fertilization (IVF). Of the IVF deliveries, about twenty-four percent resulted in multiple births. (a) Find the probability that a randomly selected infant was conceived through IVF and was part of a multiple birth. (b) Find the probability that a randomly selected infant conceived through IVF was not part of a multiple birth. (c) Would it be unusual for a randomly selected infant to have been conceived through IVF and to have been part of a multiple birth? Explain. (a) The probability that a randomly selected infant was conceived through IVF and was part of a multiple birth is (Round to the nearest thousandth as needed.) (b) The probability that a randomly selected infant conceived through IVF was not part of a multiple birth is. (Round to the nearest thousandth as needed.) (c) Would it be unusual for a randomly selected IVF cycle to result in a pregnancy and produce a multiple birth? Explain. Choose the correct answer below. O A. Yes, this is unusual because the probability is not less than or equal to 0.05. O B. No, this is not unusual because the probability is not less than or equal to 0.05. O C. No, this is not unusual because the probability is less than or equal to 0.05. O D. Yes, this is unusual because the probability is less than or equal to 0.05.
