Fifteen adult males between the ages of 35 and 50 participated in a study to evaluate the effect of diet and exercise on blood cholesterol levels. The total cholesterol was measured in each subject initially and then three months after participating in an aerobic exercise program and switching to a low-fat diet. The data are shown in the following table. 126522924023132582244295240251238624524172872343152502562491027923911283246122402181323821914225226152472332.00 (a) Do the data support the claim that low-fat diet and aerobic exercise are of value in producing a meanreduction in blood cholesterol levels?

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), as part of its internal security mission, serves as a database for all the reported crimes committed in the United States. One question that might be of interest is does having more police officers reduce the number of homicides? To investigate this claim, the 2013 data from the twenty largest municipal cities was supplied by the FBI's Uniform Crime Report. Below are two observations from the dataset: > head (cities) City Pop Homicides Police Density MedHome Mayor 1 New York 8175.133 335 4.2595 27016.30 5.5390 1 2 Chicago 2695.598 414 4.4309 11843.58 1.8310 The variables included in the study are: Name of city Population of city in 1,000s of people Number of homicides in the year 2013 Number of police officers per 1,000 people Number of people per square mile Median home price in $100,000 1 if city has a "Strong Mayor" form of government; 0 if not City Рор Homicides Police Density MedHome Мayor Model: log(u;) = Bo + B1Police; + B2MedHome; +…

In 2016, the Honors College at a large state university claimed that the average GPA of its graduating students is 3.80. Later that year, a new service-learning requirement was added to the graduation requirements, despite student claims that this additional requirement would take away from the time devoted to their studies and likely lower their GPAs. Last month, the dean of the Honors College randomly selected 10 graduating students and recorded their GPAs. His recorded data is as follows: 3.85 3.95 4.00 3.61 3.83 3.73 3.69 3.81 3.73 3.78 Using the appropriate six-step non-parametric testing procedure, is there sufficient evidence at the α = 0.05 significance level to conclude that average GPA of graduating students has decreased since the service-learning requirement was added?
Doctors are interested in the relationship between the dosage of a medicine and the time required for a patient's recovery. Table 2 shows, for a sample of 10 patients, dosage levels (in grams) and recovery times (in hours). These patients have similar characteristics except for medicine dosages.

The following is data about the hemoglobin concentrations of volunteers collected at sea level and at an altitude of 11000 feet. sea level concentrations = [14.70 , 15.22, 15.28, 16.58, 15.10 , 15.66, 15.91, 14.41, 14.73, 15.09, 15.62, 14.92]11000 feet concentrations = [14.81, 15.68, 15.57, 16.59, 15.21, 15.69, 16.16, 14.68, 15.09, 15.30 , 16.15, 14.76] There are two alternative scenarios about the way the data were obtained. In scenario 1, there are 12 volunteers who lived for a month at sea level, at which time blood was drawn and the data in "sea level concentrations" dataset were obtained. Subsequently, all 12 volunteers were moved to 11000 ft and after a month the data in the "11000 feet concentrations" dataset obtained. There is a one to one correspondence between the numbers in the two datasets, that is the first numbers correspond to volunteer1, the second numbers to volunteer2 etc. In scenario 2, the "sea level concentrations" dataset is a random sample obtained from 12…
In a study looking at undergraduate students’ perceptions of sense of community at their university, a researcher hypothesizes that the farther away students live from campus (in miles), the less they feel they are part of the university community. The researcher collected data for the following two variables – miles from campus and part of community (rating from 1-10 of how much they felt part of the university community). what is the scale of measurement? (i.e., nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio)
A recruiter at Salisbury University is interested in comparing the percents of high school seniors who plan to go to college in two different regions of the country. The boxplots of the distributions of the percents of seniors who plan to go to college are shown below. Compare the distributions of the percents of seniors who plan to go to college in the two regions. The recruiter combined the data from the two regions to produce a single histogram. Describe the shape of the distribution of the combined data.

Over a nine-month period, OutdoorGearLab tested hardshell jackets designed for ice climbing, mountaineering, and backpacking. Based on the breathability, durability, versatility, features, mobility, and weight of each jacket, an overall rating ranging from 0 (lowest) to 15 (highest) was assigned to each jacket tested. The following data show the results for 10 top-of-the line jackets (OutdoorGearLab website, February 27, 2013). Answer questions 10-14. Table 2. 5 12 6 8 5 6 7 5 12 4 Question 10 1 Refer to Table 2.
