A clinical trial is run to investigate the effectiveness of an experimental drug in reducing preterm delivery to a drug considered standard care and to a placebo. Pregnant women are enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either the experimental drug, the standard drug or a placebo. Women are followed through delivery and classified as delivering preterm (< 37 weeks) or not. The data are shown below. Preterm Delivery Experimental Drug Standard Drug Placebo Yes 15 23 40 No 83 79 67 Is there a statistically significant difference in the proportions of women delivering preterm among the three treatment groups? Run the test at a 5% level of significance.
