      5. 35-44 years
      6. 45-54 years
      7. 55-64years

      9. 75 years and older
  2. Sex

      2. Female
  3. Medicaid enrollment

Hypothesis Question: as they age, do female residents in New York enroll in Medicaid at a higher rate than male residents do?

H1: Females ages 45 and above have a higher Medicaid enrollment rate than males.

I ran a chi-square test with alpha being 0.5 and got the following results:
