Urban Travel Times Population of cities and driving times are related, as shown in the accompanying table, which shows the 1960 population N, in thousands, for several cities, together with the average time T, in minutes, sent by residents driving to work. City Population N Driving time T Los Angeles 6489 16.8 Pittsburgh 1804 12.6 Washington 1808 14.3 Hutchinson 38 6.1 Nashville 347 10.8 Tallahassee 48 7.3 An analysis of these data, along with data from 17 other cities in the United States and Canada, led to a power model of average driving time as a function of population. a Construct a power model of driving time in minutes as a function of population measured in thousands b Is average driving time in Pittsburgh more or less than would be expected from its population? c If you wish to move to a smaller city to reduce your average driving time to work by 25, how much smaller should the city be?

Question 1 of 19 The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) includes a mathematics test for eighth‑grade students. Scores on the test range from 0 to 500 . Demonstrating the ability to use the mean to solve a problem is an example of the skills and knowledge associated with performance at the Basic level. An example of the knowledge and skills associated with the Proficient level is being able to read and interpret a stem‑and‑leaf plot. In 2015, 136,900 eighth‑graders were in the NAEP sample for the mathematics test. The mean mathematics score was x¯=282 . We want to estimate the mean score μ in the population of all eighth‑graders. Consider the NAEP sample as an SRS from a Normal population with standard deviation σ=110 . (a) If we take many samples, the sample mean x¯ varies from sample to sample according to a Normal distribution with mean equal to the unknown mean score μ in the population. What is the standard deviation of this sampling distribution? (Enter your…
Self-Reported Weight. The article “Accuracy of Self- Reported Height and Weight in a Community-Based Sample of Older African Americans and Whites” (Journal of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences, Vol. 65A, No. 10, pp. 1123–1129) by G. Fillenbaum et al. explores the relationship between measured and self-reported height and weight. The authors sampled African American and White women and men older than 70 years of age. A hypothesis test is to be performed to decide whether, on average, self-reported weight is less than measured weight for the aforementioned age group. a. identify the variable. b. identify the two populations. c. identify the pairs. d. identify the paired-difference variable. e. determine the null and alternative hypotheses. f. classify the hypothesis test as two tailed, left tailed, or right tailed.
The article “Factors Associated with Exercise Behavior in People with Parkinson Disease” (T. Ellis, J. Cavanaugh, et al., Physical Therapy, 2011:1838–1848) reported a survey of patients with Parkinson's disease. Of 164 patients who said they exercised regularly, 76 reported falling in the previous six months. Of 96 patients who said they did not exercise regularly, 48 reported falling in the previous six months. Can you conclude that the proportion of patients who fall is less for those who exercise than for those who do not?
QUESTION 1 (DATA COLLECTION)Consider the analysis questions of describing parents’ attitudes towards immunization, what the proportion of them wants immunization against chicken pox for their last-born child, and whether this proportion differs by gender and age. a) Which data collection method is the most suitable one to answer the above questions, either survey or experiment? Explain your answer.b) What variables are needed to answer all the above questions? Describe the purpose and the type of scale of each of them.*Help me solve these questions. Thank you.
Carter et al investigated the effect of age at onset of bipolar disorder on the course of the illness. One of the variables studied was the subjects' family history. The table below shows the frequency of a family history of mood disorders in the two groups of interest: early age at onset (18years or younger) and later age at onset (later than 18 years old). Can we conclude on the basis of these data that subjects 18 or younger differ from subjects older than 18 with respect to family histories ofmood disorders?

Do sports drinks help prevent cramps in endurance sports? At the end of a marathon, officials will ask runners if they drank water or a sports drink during the race, along with whether or not they suffered any cramps. Is this an observational study or experiment?
