A group of investigators wishes to explore the relationship between the use of hair dyes and the development of breast cancer in females. A group of 100 beauticians 40–49 years of age is identified and followed for five years. After five years, 20 new cases of breast cancer have occurred. Assume that breast cancer incidence over this time period for average American women in this age group is 30/100. We wish to test the hypothesis that using hair dyes decrease the risk of breast cancer. Compute p-value (The answer is Not 0.0021) Please choose answer from these two following multiple choice. a) 0 b) 47.6190
Suppose a researcher is interested in the effectiveness in a new childhood exercise program implemented in a SRS of schools across a particular county. In order to test the hypothesis that the new program decreases BMI (Kg/m2), the researcher takes a SRS of children from schools where the program is employed and a SRS from schools that do not employ the program and compares the results. Assume the following table represents the SRSs of students and their BMIs.

4. Captopril is a drug designed to lower systolic blood pressure. When subjects were treated with this drug, their systolic blood pressure readings (in mm Hg) were measured before and after the drug was taken. Results are given in the accompanying table (based on data from “Essential Hypertension: Effect of an Oral Inhibitor of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme”, by MacGregor et al., BMJ, Vol. 2). Using a 0.01 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that captopril has an effect on systolic blood pressure? Explain why statistical methods from Z-interval, Z-test, T-interval or T-test –cannot be used for this problem. Then, use the sign test to conduct the required test in R studio. Please show your work.
Inorganic phosphorous is a naturally occurring element in all plants and animals, with concentrations increasing progressively up the food chain (fruit < vegetables < cereals < nuts < corpse). Geochemical surveys take soil samples to determine phosphorous content (in ppm, parts per million). A high phosphorous content may or may not indicate an ancient burial site, food storage site, or even a garbage dump. Independent random samples from two regions gave the following phosphorous measurements (in ppm). Assume the distribution of phosphorous is mound-shaped and symmetric for these two regions.

A random sample of 80 poultry farms of one variety gave an average production of 240 eggs per bird. Another random sample of 50 poultry farms of another variety gave an average production of 195 eggs per bird. At a=0.05 is there sufficient evidence to support that there is a significant difference between the egg production of the two varieties of birds. Assume o1 =18 eggs and o2=15 eggs
Over the past 10 years, contestants at the county fair hotdog eating contest averaged 125 hotdogs within the 1 minute time frame. Due to Covid19 restrictions, there were only 15 contestants who ate an average of 122 hotdogs. s=6.5 We're interested in finding out if there is significant change in hotdog eating. Use the hypothesis that H0: µ=125, Ha: #125. What is the SE? 10.9 1.7 6.5 8.3

The vulnerability of inshore environments to contamination due to urban and industrial expansion in Mombasa is discussed in the paper €œMetals, Petroleum Hydrocarbons and Organo-chlorines in Inshore Sediments and Waters on Mombasa, Kenya€ [Marine Pollution Bulletin (1997) 34: 570€“ 577]. A geochemical and oceanographic survey of the inshore waters of Mombasa, Kenya, was undertaken during the period from September 1995 to January 1996. In the survey, suspended particulate matter and sediment were collected from 48 stations within Mombasa€™s estuarine creeks. The concentrations of major oxides and 13 trace elements were determined for a varying number of cores at each of the stations. In particular, the lead concentrations in suspended particulate matter (mg kg-1 dry weight) were determined at 37 stations. The researchers were interested in determining whether the average lead concentration was greater than 30 mg kg-1 dry weight. The data are given in the following table along with…
