(a)Detect Heteroscedasticity from the given example output, also suggest some remedies. This example is from the 2020 Pakistan Health and Nutrition Survey using two variables: A person's systolic blood pressure (systolic),A person's age, measured in years (age). There are 9178 respondents in this survey. Systolic blood pressure measures the pressure in a person's arteries when their heart beats (contracts and pumps blood). In this dataset, this variable ranges from 70 to 240 with a mean of about 122 and a standard deviation of 18.14. Age is measured in years, and in this dataset it ranges from 17 to 95 with a mean of about 49 and a standard deviation of 15.19.

Note- bolded quiz have already answered A possible important environmental determinant of lung function in children is the amount of cigarette smoking in the home. Suppose this question is studied by selecting two groups: Group 1 consists of 23 nonsmoking children 5-9 years of age, both of whose parents smoke, who have a mean forced expiratory volume (FEV) of 2.1 L and a standard deviation of 0.7 L; group 2 consists of 20 nonsmoking children of comparable age, neither of whose parents smoke, who have a mean FEV of 2.3 L and a standard deviation of 0.4 L.*8.31 What are the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses to compare the means of the two groups? *8.32 What is the appropriate test procedure for the hypotheses in Problem 8.31? *8.33 Carry out the test in Problem 8.32 using the criticalvalue method. *8.34 Provide a 95% CI for the true mean difference in FEV between 5- to 9-year-old children whose parents smoke and comparable children whose parents do not smoke. *8.35 Assuming…

Consider a capital market with only two risky assets A and B. Their standard deviations are 1 and 2, respectively. There is no risk-free asset. When the correlation coefficient ρAB = 0, construct a portfolio, whose variance is strictly less than 1. [Hint: you may want to try the portfolio that puts more weight on the security with the lower standard deviation.]
Researchers interested in lead exposure due to car exhaust sampled the blood of 52 police officers subjected to constant inhalation of automobile exhaust fumes while working traffic enforcement in a primarily urban environment. The blood samples of these officers had an average lead concentration of 124.32 µg/l and an SD of 37.74 µg/l; a previous study of individuals from a nearby suburb, with no history of exposure, found an average blood level concentration of 35 µg/l. Write down the hypotheses that would be appropriate for testing if the police officers appear to have been exposed to a higher concentration of lead. Explicitly state and check all conditions necessary for inference on these data. Test the hypothesis that the downtown police officers have a higher lead exposure than the group in the previous study. Interpret your results in context. Based on your preceding result, without performing a calculation, would a 99% confidence interval for the average blood concentration…
In recent years, concerns have been expressed about adverse health effects from amalgam dental restorations, which include mercury. The table below shows results from a study in which some patients were treated with amalgam restorations and others were treated with composite restorations that do not contain mercury (based on data from “Neuropsychological and Renal Effects of Dental Amalgam in Children,” by Bellinger, et al., Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 295, No. 15). Use a 0.05 significance level to test for independence between the type of restoration and sensory disorders. Do amalgam restorations appear to affect sensory disorders? Amalgam Composite Sensory disorder 36 28 No sensory disorder 231 239
A study was conducted to demonstrate that soybeans inoculated with nitrogen-fixing bacteria yield more and grow adequately without expensive environmentally deleterious synthesized fertilizers. The trial was conducted under controlled conditions with uniform amounts of soil. The initial hypothesis was that inoculated plants would outperform their uninoculated counterparts. This assumption is based on the facts that plants need nitrogen to manufacture vital proteins and amino acids and that nitrogen-fixing bacteria would make more of this substance available to plants, increasing their size and yield. There were 8 inoculated plants (I) and 8 uninoculated plants (U). The plant yield as measured by pod weight for each plant is given in Table 2.20 Here are the questions I would like explanations for. Please use STATA to compute answers!!!: 2.35. The objective is to compute appropriate descriptive statistics for I and Data set available U plants. 2.36. Use graphic methods to compare the…
