Interpret this result. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice. (Type a whole number.) O A. If 1000 multiple births for women 15-54 years old were randomly selected, exactly of them would involve a mother who was at least 40 years old. O B. If 1000 multiple births for women 15-54 years old were randomly selected, we would expect about of them to involve a mother who was at least 40 years old.

Question
Number of Multiplee
The data on the right represent the number of live multiple-delivery births (three or more babies) in a particular year for women 15 to 54 years old. Use
the data to complete parts (a) through (d) below.
Age
Births
15-19
95
20-24
508
25-29
1622
30-34
2835
35-39
1843
40-44
377
45-54
117
(a) Determine the probability that a randomly selected multiple birth for women 15-54 years old involved a mother 30 to 39 years old.
P(30 to 39) = 0.632
(Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)
(b) Determine the probability that a randomly selected multiple birth for women 15-54 years old involved a mother who was not 30 to 39 years old.
P(not 30 to 39) = 0.368
(Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)
%D
(c) Determine the probability that a randomly selected multiple birth for women 15-54 years old involved a mother who was less than 45 years old.
P(less than 45) = 0.984
(Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)
(d) Determine the probability that a randomly selected multiple birth for women 15-54 years old involved a mother who was at least 40 years old. Interpret this result. Is it unusual?
Find the probability that a randomly selected multiple birth for women 15-54 years old involved a mother who was at least 40 years old.
P(at least 40) = 0.067
(Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)
Interpret this result. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
(Type a whole number.)
O A. If 1000 multiple births for women 15-54 years old were randomly selected, exactly
of them would involve a mother who was at least 40 years old.
O B. If 1000 multiple births for women 15-54 years old were randomly selected, we would expect about
of them to involve a mother who was at least 40 years old.
