The Research Unit for Cecilion Supermart conducted an experiment to estimate the strength of the carrier bag from the starch-based biofilms made from two different jicamas (sengkuang) of type A and type B. However, the researcher claims that jicama type A produces more strength compared to type B. To support this claim, 10kg weight item was put into 100 carrier bags made from jicama type A and 200 carrier bags made from jicama type B were randomly selected. As a result, 8 bags from jicama type A burst while 12 bags from jicama type B burst. Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the difference in true proportion of the carrier bags which burst between jicama type A and type B. Give comment on the parameter estimate

In an experimental study, it was noticed that people who eat more leafy, green vegetables tend to get better sleep than the general population. Researchers wonder whether the improved sleep might be caused by the minerals potassium and magnesium found in leafy, green vegetables. How could the researchers design an experiment to determine the effects of potassium and magnesium on sleep?
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…

A pharmaceutical company knows that approximately 5% of its birth- control pills have aningredient that is below the minimum strength, thus rendering the pill ineffective. What is theprobability that fewer than 10 is a sample of 200 pills will be ineffective?
Drinking This Much Coffee Each Day May Lead to Brain Shrinkage and Increase Dementia Risk More than 7 in 10 Americans drink coffee daily, averaging about three cups per day, according to the National Coffee Association. At that rate (and at the right time of day, AKA not too close to bedtime), coffee acts as a pick-me-up that offers a surprisingly wide range of health benefits. But new research published June 2021 in the journal Nutritional Neuroscience proves that—like with most things in life—there can be too much of a good thing. After diving into 8 to 12 years of data collected about the coffee habits of more than 398,000 adults enrolled in a British study, the Australian research team discovered that sipping more than six cups of coffee per day was associated with a 53% increased risk of dementia and a smaller brain volume. So while coffee can be good to give you a little energy buzz, it can be not so great for your brain health—if you consume it in large quantities. Those who…

A new chemotherapy drug is released to treat leukemia and researchers suspect that the drug may have fewer side effects than the most commonly used drug to treat leukemia. The two drugs have equivalent efficacy. In order to determine if a larger study should be conducted to look into the prevalence of side effects for the two drugs, set up a Mann-Whitney Utest at the alpha equals .05 level and interpret its results. Number of Reported Side-Effects Old Drug 0 1 3 3 5 New Drug 0 0 1 2 4 Old Drug New Drug Total Sample (Ordered Smallest to Largest) Ranks Old Drug New Drug Old Drug New Drug A) We fail to reject H0, which…

In one study, researchers at McGill University recruited127 people with high cholesterol and split them into twogroups. One took a probiotic supplement twice a dayfor nine weeks, while the second group took a placebo.The probiotic group saw their total cholesterol drop by 9 percent and their LDL, or “bad cholesterol,” fall almost12 percent. In a different study, conducted in Britain,80 volunteers “were given probiotics for six weeks andthen switched, later on, to a placebo. That study found nodifference in cholesterol levels when the subjects took thesupplement versus the dummy pills.”Which of the following is true: a) The McGill study is a controlled randomized experi-ment, while the British study is an observational study. b) The McGill study is a completely randomized ex-periment, while the British study is a matched pairs experiment.c) The results from the McGill study are more validbecause it includes blinding while the British studydoes not.d) We have reason to believe that the…
In an observational study, it was noticed that people that eat more chocolate tend to have better blood flow than the general population. Researchers wonder whether the improved blood flow might be caused by flavanols (a molecule found in many foods). Dark chocolate contains a high concentration of flavanols, but milk chocolate contains a much lower concentration. How could the researchers design an experiment to determine the effects of flavanol on blood flow from the different types of chocolate?
