For a comparative study of the cure rate (percentage) of two drugs I and II: of 120 patients treated by drug I 84 were cured, while of 150 patients treated by drug II 90 were cured. a Give 96% Confidence Interval (CI) for the difference in cure rate (perentage) of drugs I and II? b. If cure rates of the two drugs are equal [i.e. (p=p)=p], give 98% CI for their common cure rate p?

Based on the sample data set: (0,0) ( 2,3) (3,3) (6,4) (9,8) A. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the slope B1 of the population regression line B. find the Coefficient of determination using the formula r2=B1SSxy / SSyy.
Large samples of women and men are obtained, and the hemoglobin level is measured in each subject. Here is the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means, where the measures from women correspond to population 1 and the measures from men correspond to population 2: -1.7 g/dL <μ1-μ2<-1.62 g?dL What does the confidence interval suggest about equality of the mean hemoglobin level in women and the mean hemoglobin level in men? Because the confidence interval [includes/does not include] [number], it appears that there [is/is not] a significant difference between the mean level of hemoglobin in women and the mean level of hemoglobin in men
A 95 percent confidence interval for the slope of the regression line relating the number of grams of carbohydrates and the number of kilocalories per 100-gram sample of various raw foods is given by (2.505, 6.696). The confidence interval is based on a random sample of n raw foods. A check of the conditions for inference on the slope shows they are reasonably met. Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the interval? Ninety-five percent of all such samples of size n will produce a sample slope between 2.505 and 6.696 for the regression line relating grams of carbohydrates and kilocalories per 100-gram sample of various raw foods. The probability is 0.95 that the true slope of the regression line relating grams of carbohydrates and kilocalories per 100-gram sample of various raw foods is between 2.505 and 6.696. C We are 95 percent confident that the slope of the regression line for the random sample of n raw foods is between 2.505 and 6.696. We are 95 percent confident…
Suppose that a researcher, using data on 150 randomly selected bicycles, estimates the OLS regression: Price=672.65-2.12x Weight, (185.8) (0.42) where Price measures the price of the th bike in dollars and Weight measures the weight of the th bike in kilograms. The 99% confidence interval for the intercept, ßo, will be (, ). (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
