A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if her glucose level is above 155 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) one hour after a sugary drink. Sheila's measured glucose level one hour after the sugary drink varies according to the normal distribution with �=140 mg/dl and �=12 mg/dl. Suppose Sheila repeats this process on three separate randomly selected days. What sample mean blood glucose level is higher than 95% of all other sample mean blood glucose levels? Use 2 decimal places.
Ophelia O'Brien, VP of Consumer Credit of American First Banks (AFB), monitors the default rate on personal loans at the AFB member banks. One of her standards is "no more than 5% of personal loans should be in default." On each Friday, the default rate is calculated for a sample of 500 personal loans. Last Friday's sample contained 30 defaulted loans. Using = 0.10, the observed z value is
The survival curve below was constructed from a study that followed 7 individuals being treated with prednisone for inflammatory conditions over a period of 8 months. Assuming the event described is the point in time the individuals developed prednisone-induced hypertension and those individuals who made it to 8 months concluded the study without prednisone-induced hypertension, calculate and interpret the proportion of individuals who suffered from prednisone-induced hypertension at the end of the study. A) 14.3% of individuals in the study did not develop prednisone-induced hypertension. B) 14.3% of individuals in the study did not develop prednisone-induced hypertension during the time frame in which the study was being conducted. C) 85.7% of individuals in the study did not develop prednisone-induced hypertension. D) 85.7% of individuals in the study did not develop prednisone-induced hypertension during the time frame in which the study was being conducted.
Suppose you are an epidemiologist who did a survey of 1,150 women who gave birth in Malabon City in 2010, a total of 468 reported taking a multivitamin at least 4 times a week during the month before becoming pregnant. Calculate the prevalence of frequent multivitamin use in this group. Express the rate per 100 population. Using step-by-step process Topic: Measures of Disease Frequency and Morbidity
The control department of a light bulb manufacturer randomly picks 4400 light bulbs from the production lot every week. The records show that, when there is no malfunction, the defect rate in the manufacturing process (due to imperfections in the material used) is 1%. When 1.25% or more of the light bulbs in the sample of 4400 are defective, the control unit calls repair technicians for service. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a)Find the mean of p, where p is the proportion of defective light bulbs in a sample of 4400 when there is no malfunction. (b)Find the standard deviation of p. (c)Compute an approximation for P≥p0.0125, which is the probability that the service technicians will be called even though the system is functioning properly. Round your answer to four decimal places.
A study of a new type of vision screening test recruited a sample of 175 children age 3 to 7 years. The publication provides the following summary of the children’s ages: “Twelve patients (7%) were 3 years old; 33 (19%), 4 years old; 29 (17%), 5 years old; 69 (39%), 6 years old; and 32 (18%), 7 years old.”6 What is the median age in the study? Notice that you can easily add up the percents provided in parentheses (in increasing order of age) until the total just exceeds 50%.
Researchers wanted to determine if carpeted rooms contained more bacteria than uncarpeted rooms. To determine the amount of bacteria in a room, researchers pumped the air from the room over a Petri dish at the rate of 1 cubic foot per minute for eight carpeted rooms and eight uncarpeted rooms. Colonies of bacteria were allowed to form in the 16 Petri dishes. The results are given in the table below. Assume the distribution to be approximately normal. Do carpeted rooms have more bacteria than uncarpeted rooms? Carpeted Rooms Uncarpeted Rooms 11.7 12.0 8.2 8.3 7.1 3.8 13.1 7.3 10.6 12.0 10.1 11.1 14.8 10.3 14.0 13.7 What is the test statistic for this hypothesis test if group 1 is the carpeted rooms and group 2 is the uncarpeted rooms. 1.43 2.73 0.1831 1.39 0.935
