Canine hip dysplasia is a degenerative disease that causes pain in many dogs. Sometimes advanced warning signs

Question:

Canine hip dysplasia is a degenerative disease that causes pain in many dogs. Sometimes advanced warning signs appear in puppies as young as 6 months. A veterinarian checked 42 puppies whose owners brought them to a vaccination clinic, and she found 5 with early hip dysplasia. She considers this group to be a random sample of all puppies.
a) Explain why we cannot use this information to construct a confidence interval for the rate of occurrence of early hip dysplasia among all 6-month-old puppies.
b) Construct a "plus-four" confidence interval and interpret it in this context.
