Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 42P
In Section 2.10, we described Data Set BONEDEN.DAT (at www.cengagebrain.com) concerning the effect of tobacco use on BMD.
Answer Problems 2.38–2.40 for BMD for the femoral shaft.
2.39 Suppose we group the twin pairs according to the difference in tobacco use expressed in 10 pack-year groups (0–9.9 pack-years/10–19.9 pack-years/20–29.9 pack-years/30–39.9 pack-years/40+ pack-years). Compute appropriate
