An article reported data from a study in which both a baseline gasoline mixture and a reformulated gasoline were used. Consider the following observations on age (yr) and NOx emissions (g/kWh): Engine 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Age 0 0 2 11 7 16 9 0 12 4 Baseline 1.74 4.38 4.04 1.23 5.30 0.58 3.35 3.44 0.73 1.23 Reformulated 1.85 5.93 5.52 2.67 6.54 0.76 4.94 4.87 0.69 1.39 Construct scatter plots of the baseline NOx emissions versus age. Construct scatter plots of the reformulated NOx emissions versus age. What appears to be the nature of the relationship between these two variables? As age increases, emissions also increase.As age increases, emissions decrease. There is no compelling relationship between the data.

To combat antibiotic resistance, the Quality Improvement Consortium recommends a throat swab to confirm strep throat before a physician prescribes antibiotics to children under age 5. Nationally, 40 percent of children under 5 who received antibiotics did not have a throat swab. The Colorado Department of Health took a random sample of 60 children under the age of 5 who received antibiotics for throat infections and found that 18 did not have a throat swab. At α = .05, is this a statistically significant reduction over last year’s national rate of 40 percent? (a-1) Calculate the critical value. (A negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) Critical value _____ (a-2) Calculate the test statistic. (A negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Since its removal from the banned substances list in 2004 by the World Anti-Doping Agency,caffeine has been used by athletes with the expectancy that it enhances their workout andperformance. However, few studies look at the role caffeine plays in sedentary females.Researchers at the University of Western Australia conducted a test in which they determined therate of energy expenditure (kilojoules) on 10 healthy, sedentary females who were nonregularcaffeine users. Each female was randomly assigned either a placebo or caffeine pill (6mg/kg) 60minutes prior to exercise. The subject rode an exercise bike for 15 minutes at 65% of theirmaximum heart rate, and the energy expenditure was measured. The process was repeated on aseparate day for the remaining treatment. The mean difference in energy expenditure (caffeine –placebo) was 18kJ with a standard deviation of 19kJ. If we assume that the differences follow anormal distribution can it be concluded that that caffeine appears to increase…
Cadmium, a heavy metal, is toxic to animals. Mushrooms, however, are able to absorb and accumulate cadmium at high concentrations. The Czech and Slovak governments have set a safety limit for cadmium in dry vegetables at 0.5 part per million (ppm). M. Melgar et al. measured the cadmium levels in a random sample of the edible mushroom Boletus pinicola and published the results in the paper “Influence of Some Factors in Toxicity and Accumulation of Cd from Edible Wild Macrofungi in NW Spain” (Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Vol. B33(4), pp. 439–455). A hypothesis test is to be performed to decide whether the mean cadmium level in Boletus pinicola mushrooms is greater than the government’s recommended limit. Hypothesis tests are proposed. For each hypothesis test,a. determine the null hypothesis.b. determine the alternative hypothesis.c. classify the hypothesis test as two tailed, left tailed, or right tailed.

A study was conducted to examine if children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) had higher prenatal exposure to air pollution, specifically particulate matter < 2.5 g in diameter (PM2.5). Researchers obtained birth records of all children born in Los Angeles between 2000 and 2008 and linked these to the Department of Developmental Services records to determine if any of those subjects had been diagnosed with ASD or not. They used the birth addresses given in the birth records to determine the average daily PM2.5 for the third trimester for each child. The standard deviation for PM2.5 among ASD subjects was found to be 34.6 and for non-ASD subjects was 16.8. Assume PM2.5 is normally distributed. 4a. What was the study design? * Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT) * Case Report * Nested Case-Control Study * Case-Control Study * cross-sectional study Cohort Study 4B.
