For the population of women whose mothers took the drug DES during pregnancy, a sample of women showed that developed tissue abnormalities that might lead to cancer. Provide a descriptive statistic (to 1 decimal) that could be used to estimate the number of women out of in this population who have tissue abnormalities.

The complete question is as follows:

For the population of women whose mothers took the drug DES during pregnancy, a  sample of 3980 women showed 63 developed tissue abnormalities that might lead  to cancer. Provide a descriptive statistic that could be used to estimate the number of  women out of 1000 in this population who have tissue abnormalities.

The correct answer would be 15.8 % or 15.8 women

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The sample of women = 3980

Tissue abnormalities developed mother took DES = 63

Solution :

The proportion of women who took the drug and developed tissue abnormalities

p =

=

=0.015829 or 1.58 %

Now, the number of women out of 1000 in this population who have tissue abnormalities

= %

= 15.8

Thus, the correct answer is = 1.58 women out of 1000.
