Please answer all parts. Will rate, Thank you. A meat processing plant has 240 workers. 40 of them work in administration, while the remaining works on the shop floor. 80% of the people working on the shop floor use knives to cut whole animals into smaller pieces and to debone, putting them especially at risk of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). 75% of the shop people using knives have CTS, while 85% of the shopworkers who don’t use knives have no problems. 45% of the people working in the administration do a lot of computer work, putting them at risk of CTS as well, and 3 of them have CTS, while none of the others working in administration has CTS. Create appropriate tables and use them to calculate the following: a. Calculate the odds ratio of CTS for shop workers only b. Calculate the relative risk of CTS for shop workers only c. Calculate the odds ratio of CTS for all workers d. Calculate the relative risk of CTS for all workers

The drug manufacturer claim that taking gemfibrozil is beneficial to reduce the chance of heart attacks. 2051 men took the medication, and a control group of 2030 men took a placebo. During the next five years, 56 men in the drug group and 84 men in the placebo group had heart attacks. We would like to compare the proportion of men who develop heart attacks between the drug group and the placebo group. What are the correct x1 and x2 values in order to calculate the pooled sample proportion? a) x1=2051, x2=2030 b) x1=2051, x2=84 c) x1=56, x2=2030 O d) x1=56, x2=84

It’s assumed that students need to stay awake more to study during finals week. One way to measure this is how much coffee is consumed during Finals week at night. A local coffee house near APU counted the number of cups of coffee sold per hour during Finals week after 6 p.m. We randomly select ten (10) hours of sales records during Finals week and find out that the following number of cups of coffee were consumed: 18, 17, 22, 14, 17, 20, 22, 24, 15, 15 By comparison, the sales records from a previous week were used as a comparison. The following number of cups of coffee were consumed over a seven (7) hour period: 9, 13, 5, 15, 17, 10, 11 a.

A student pursuing a degree in English as a second language believes the proportion female factory workers who can't speak English is less than the proportion of male factory workers who can't speak English. To test her claim she randomly selects 313 female factory workers and out of them 48 could not speak English. She then randomly selects 400 male factory workers and out of them 43 could not speak English. Test her claim at a=0.05 to see if she was right. The correct hypotheses are: O Ho:PF Рм (сclaim) O Ho:PF 2 PM HA:PF < PM(claim) O Ho:PF = pM HA:PF + PM(claim) Since the level of significance is 0.10 the critical value is -1.282 The test statistic is: (round to 3 places) The p-value is: (round to 3 places) The decision can be made to: O reject Ho O do not reject Ho The final conclusion is that: O There is enough evidence to reject the claim that the proportion female factory workers who can't speak English is less than the proportion of male factory workers who can't speak…
To the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the reasonableness of total itemized deductions depends on the taxpayer's adjusted gross income. Large deductions, which include charity and medical deductions, are more reasonable for taxpayers with larg given level of income, the chances of an IRS audit are increased.

The rabies vaccine for dogs can save your dog's life. If your dog bites another animal or is on the receiving end of a bite, the vaccine can protect them from a dangerous and potentially fatal illness. Furthermore, in most places, the rabies vaccine for dogs is legally required. The NYC Department of Health wants to know if LESS than 95% of the dogs in the city have been vaccinated with their rabies vaccine. 158,045 of the 165,000 dogs examined had their rabies shots. Risk no more than 5% Type I error. What kind of test will you need to perform? A A right, one-tailed z-test B A left, one-tailed z-test C A two-tailed z- test
A researcher wanted to study the relationship between coffee drinking and heart problems. She interviewed all patients at several area hospitals and found that patients in the hospital for treatment of heart problems drank an average of 2.7 cups of coffee per day (Margin of error is 1.4 cups) while those patients being treated for other problems averaged only 1.4 cups of coffee per day (Margin of error is 0.8 cups). What conclusion can you draw about coffee as a cause of heart problems from this information?A) Coffee is bad for you.B) Coffee is good for you.C) Heart patients drink more coffee than other patients.D) None, because only patients in hospitals were interviewed.

Many young men in North America and Europe (but not in Asia) tend to think they need more muscle to be attractive. One study presented 200 young American men with 100 images of men with various levels of muscle. Researchers measure level of muscle in kilograms per square meter (kg/m2) of fat-free body mass. Typical young men have about 20 kg/m2. Each subject chose two images, one that represented his own level of body muscle and one that he thought represented "what 21 women prefer." The mean gap between self-image and "what women prefer" was 2.35 kg/m2. 99 Suppose that the "muscle gap" in the population of all young men has a Normal distribution with standard deviation 2.5 kg/m2. Give a 90% confidence interval for the mean amount of muscle young men think they should add to be attractive to women. (Enter your answers rounded to four decimal places.) lower limit 17.4125 kg/m2 upper limit = 17.8875 kg/m² Question Source: Moore, The Basic Practice Of Statistics, 8e Publisher: W.H. Free
