4. When the Titanic sank in 1912, there were over 1,300 passengers aboard. A random sample of 50 passengers that were aboard is taken. The amount they paid for the voyage and whether or not they survived is recorded. A model is fit to predict the probability they survived when the ship sank is obtained.

1. The data in Table 7–6 were collected in a clinical trial to evaluate a new compound designed to improve wound healing in trauma patients. The new compound was com- pared against a placebo. After treatment for 5 days with the new compound or placebo, the extent of wound healing was measured. Is there a difference in the extent of wound healing between the treatments? (Hint: Are treatment and the percent wound healing independent?) Run the appropriate test at a 5% level of significance. Use the data in Problem 1. Pool the data across the treatments into one sample of size n = 250. Use the pooled data to test whether the distribution of the percent wound healing is approximately normal. Specifically, use the following distribution 30%, 40%, 20%, and 10% and a = 0.05 to run the appropriate test. Percent Wound Healing Treatment 0-25% 26-50% 51-75% 76-100% New compound (n=125) 15 37 32 41 Placebo (n=125) 36 45 34 10

Iron-deficiency anemia is an important nutritional healthproblem in the United States. A dietary assessment wasperformed on 51 boys 9 to 11 years of age whose familieswere below the poverty level. The mean daily iron intakeamong these boys was found to be 12.50 mg with standarddeviation 4.75 mg. Suppose the mean daily iron intakeamong a large population of 9- to 11-year-old boys fromall income strata is 14.44 mg. We want to test whether themean iron intake among the low-income group is differentfrom that of the general population. Problem a) State the hypotheses that we can use to considerthis question.Problem b) Carry out the hypothesis test in Problem a using the critical-value method with an α level of 0.05, and summarize your findings. Problem c) What is the p-value for the test conducted in Problem b?
