HI am interested in comparing the pediatric mortality rate for Population 1 and Population 2. The following data was gathered:

	Population 1	Population 2
Age Group	Deaths	Population	Mortality Rate	Deaths	Population	Mortality Rate
0-4	5	100	0.05	10	165	0.06
5-14	10	90	0.11	10	75	0.13
15-19	15	110	0.14	10	60	0.17
Total	30	300	0.1	30	300	0.1

I have several questions .

1. How do I compare and contrast a crude measure, a specific measure, and an adjusted measure? Please show and explain

2. How do I compare the crude death rate in Population 1 to Population 2. How do I interpret what I?

3. How do I interpret What I observe when I compare the age specific death rates in Population 1 to Population 2? Please show and explain

4. How do I interpret what I observe when I compare the age distributions for Population 1 versus Population 2? Please show and explain

5. When comparing mortality rates for Population to Population 2, is it appropriate to age adjust the mortality rates first? How that look in a design/method selection
