(a) Explain in words what the "Theoretical Quantiles" in this plot are.
(b) Would t-test be appropriate to test that the average survival for this cohort i
more than 5 years?
(c) What non-parametric test would you use as an alternative to the t-test?
Compute the value of your non-parametric statistics.
(d) If the p-value of your test is 0.2266, what conclusion would you draw?
