2. A clinical trial is being conducted in order to determine the efficacy of a new drug used to treat Rheumatoid arthritis. The efficacy of the medication will not only be determined by the physical improvement of symptoms but also by using a blood test to examine the concentration C-reactive protein (an inflammatory marker) in an individual's blood. If the researcher wants a margin of error for the level of C-reactive protein to be less than or equal to 3.0 mg/dL, and if the standard deviation for C-reactive protein concentrations among arthritis patients was previously documented at 8 mg/dL, how many patients should be recruited for each group in the study assuming a 95% confidence interval will be used to quantify the mean differences between the control group and the treatment group? 112; n for the control group A) n for the treatment group 111 B) n for the treatment group = 56; n for the control group 57 C) n for the treatment group 56; n for the control group 56 D) n for the treatment group 112; n for the control group 112

Consider two groups of students: B1, students who received high scores on tests, and B2, students who received low scores on tests. In group B1, 80% study more than 25 hours per week, and in group B2, 40% study more than 25 hours per week. What is the overinvolvement ratio for high study levels in high test scores over low test scores?

2. A leading researcher in the study of interstate highway accidents proposes that a major cause of many collisions on the interstates is not the speed of the vehicles but rather the difference in speeds of the vehicles. When some vehicles are traveling slowly while other vehicles are traveling at speeds greatly in excess of the speed limit, the faster-moving vehicles may have to change lanes quickly, which can increase the chance of an accident. Thus, when there is a large variation in the speeds of the vehicles in a given location on the interstate, there may be a larger number of accidents than when the traffic is moving at a more uniform speed. The researcher believes that when the standard deviation in speed of vehicles exceeds 10 mph, the rate of accidents is greatly increased. During a 1-hour period of time, a random sample of 50 vehicles is selected from a section of an interstate known to have a high rate of accidents, and their speeds are recorded using a radar gun. The data…
Suppose we take a sample of 2,500 blood donors from a population for which 50% (0.5) have type O+ blood. (a) Into what range of possible values should the sample proportion fall 95% of the time, according to the Empirical Rule? to (b) If the sample included only 625 donors instead of 2,500, would the range of possible sample proportions be wider, more narrow, or the same as with a sample of 2,500 donors? Explain your answer, and explain why it makes intuitive sense. The range would be with 625 donors compared to a sample of 2,500 donors since the standard deviation of the sampling distribution would be . This makes intuitive sense because if fewer donors are included in the sample, the proportion will be reliable as an estimate of the proportion.
A clinical trial is being conducted in order to determine the efficacy of a new drug that will be used to treat Crohn’s disease. The efficacy of the medication will not only be determined by the physical improvement of symptoms but will also be determined by using a blood test to examine the concentration of C-reactive protein (an inflammatory marker) in an individual’s blood. If the researcher wants the margin of error for the level of C-reactive protein to be less than or equal to 2.9 mg/dL and the standard deviation for C-reactive protein concentrations among Crohn’s disease patients was previously documented at 10.1 mg/dL, how many patients should be recruited for each group of individuals in the study, assuming a 95% confidence interval will be used to quantify the mean differences between the control group and the treatment group? n for the treatment group = 12 and n for the control group = 12 n for the treatment group = 14 and n for the control group = 14 n for the treatment…

A concern was raised in Australia that the percentage of deaths of Aboriginal prisoners which is 0.27% was higher than the percent of deaths of non-Aboriginal prisoners. A sample of six years (from 1990 to 1995) of data was collected, and it was found that out of 14,495 Aboriginal prisoners, 51 died. Do the data provide enough evidence to show that the proportion of deaths of Aboriginal prisoners is more than 0.27%?

The Boeing Company faces a critical strategic choice in its competition with Airbus Industries for the long-haul flight segment: Should it design and build a super-747 model that can carry 550 passengers at speeds around 350 mph, or a plane that can fly at 95 percent of the speed of sound but carry only about 350 passengers? As a member of Boeing's Planning Group, your task is to build a model to investigate the trade-offs involved in this decision.
A dietitian wishes to see if a person’s cholesterol level will be changed if the diet is supplemented by a certain mineral. Four subjects were pre-tested, and they took the mineral supplement for a 6-week period. The results are shown in the table. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean of cholesterol levels has been changed after six weeks at α=0.2α=0.2? Assume that the differences are from an approximately normally distributed population.
