Perform a T-Test whether there is an association between a person gender

and the age at which they first have children. Use TT03 data set to perform
an independent sample t test on SEX and AGEKDBRN. Answer the following

Is the relationship statistically significant?

Yes, significant because less than p>.05

On the basis of these data, would you say that gender is associated
with the age at which people have children?
Yes, gender is associated with the age at which people have children.
2. Test whether there is an association between a persons race and the age at
which they first have children. Use TT03 data set to perform an ANOVA on
RACE and AGEKDBRN. Answer the following questions:
