Syringes, pens, jet injectors, pumps, ports and even inhalers are the various ways for diabetics to take insulin. Currently most diabetics take insulin using syringes or pens. A research study was completed to compare the effectiveness of these two different methods of delivering insulin to diabetics. Two independent random samples of 100 diabetics comprising Group A (using syringes) and 100 diabetics comprising Group B (using pens). Both groups were carefully monitored and their glucose levels measured in mg/dl (milligrams per deciliter) two hours after injections. Their glucose levels were compared and a 95% confidence interval for the true mean glucose levels for Group A minus the true mean glucose levels for Group B was computed to be: (–11.45, 5.32). - best interpretation for the confidence interval in this problem. -Pick the formula most appropriate to use in this problem. -This problem deals with which of the following?

Identify whether the studies described here are based on (1) single samples, (2) paired samples, or (3) independent samples. Cardiovascular disease risk factors are compared in husbands and wives. A nutritional exam is applied to a random sample of individuals. Results are compared to the results of the whole nation. An investigator compares vaccination histories in 30 autistic schoolchildren to a simple random sample of non-autistic children from the same school district.
Colorectal surgery is associated with a high rate of surgical site infection (SSI). Complications arising from SSI significantly increase an individual's length of hospital stay, reduce quality of life, and can also lead to additional health care needs. Outcomes of 2,919 colorectal surgeries were collected for research, including age and whether an individual developed a surgical site infection. Medical researchers would like to use this sample data to learn about health outcomes for colorectal surgery. One question medical researchers were hoping to answer is whether the difference in the ages of colorectal surgery patients who develop SSI and those who do not is too great to have resulted from sampling error alone. Perform a two-sample t-test for comparing two population means to answer this question.
The Wisconsin Fish and Game Department stocked a lake with 30% catfish, 15 % bass, 40% bluegill, and 15% Northern Pike. Five years later they took a random sample of 500 fish from the lake and found 120 catfish, 85 bass, 220 bluegill, and 75 Northern Pike. At the 5% level of significance, can we show that the distribution of fish changed over the 5-year interval? State and test appropriate hypotheses. State conclusions.
Researchers are investigating whether people who exercise with a training partner have a greater increase, on average, in targeted exercise intensity compared with people who exercise alone. Two methods of collecting data have been proposed. Method I: Recruit volunteers who are willing to participate. Randomly assign each participant to exercise with a training partner or to exercise alone. Method II: Select a random sample of people from all the people who exercise at a community fitness center. Ask each person in the sample whether they use a training partner, and use the response to create the two groups. (a) For each method, the researchers will record the change in targeted exercise intensity for each person in the investigation. They will compare the mean change in intensity between those who exercise with a training partner and those who do not. (i) Describe the population of generalization if method I is used. Explain your answer. (ii) Describe the population of…
According to the American Lung association, lung cancer account for 28% of all cancer deaths in the US. A new type of screening for lung cancer, computed tomography (CT), has been developed. Medical researchers believe CT scans are scans are more sensitive than regular X-rays in pinpointing small tumors. The Cancer Center at the University of South Florida is currently conducting a clinical trial of 50,000 smokers nationwide to compare the effectiveness of CT scans with X-ray for detecting lung cancer (Today’s Tomorrows, Fall 2002). Each participating smoker is randomly assigned to one of the two screening methods, CT or chest X-ray, and his or her progress is tracked over time. The age at which the scanning method first detects a tumor is the variable of interest. A. Identify the data collection method used by the cancer researchers. B. dentify experimental units of the study. C. Identify the type of the variable measured. D. Identify the population and sample.
Acne is a common skin disease that affects most adolescents and can continue into adulthood. A study compared the effectiveness of three acne treatments and a placebo, all in gel form, applied twice daily for 12 weeks. The study's 517 teenage volunteers were randomly assigned to one of the four treatments. Success was assessed as clear or almost clear skin at the end of the 12 week period. The results of the study can be seen in the table below. Using the appropriate statistical test, determine if there is significant evidence that the four treatments perform differently. If so, how do they compare.
QSR Magazine published the latest results of its annual quick serve resturant drive-thru study. One aspect of the study examined the customer drive-thru wait times for various brands. The drive-thru wait times for random samples of customers at Chick-fil-A, McDonald's, and KFC are given in the table below. Brand Customers drive-thru wait times (in seconds) Chick-fil-A 485 496 489 460 487 477 495 McDonald's 356 362 343 327 369 351 350 KFC 291 269 251 283 286 294 278 (a) Conduct a hypothesis test using a=0.05 to determine whether the mean drive-thru wait times of customers at Chick-fila-A, and KFC are the same. Assume that drive thru wait times for each of these brands reasonably follow a normal distribution. (b) Use the sample data collected in Problem 4 to construct…
Dental health issues remain a barrier to attendance, as evidenced by a 2010 Los Angeles School Attendance Review Board (SARB), which lists dental health, along with homelessness, in the top barriers to attendance. The Dental Hygiene program at West Los Angeles College collects data on its clinic patients to help instructors and students better understand their patient population. From July 2017 to December 2019 the program treated 3421 patients. Students were asked to analyze a random sample of 127 patients from that time period and found that 36.4% had severe periodontal disease (infections and inflammation of the gums and bone that surround and support the teeth). Identify the population: Identify the sample: Identify the parameter of interest: Identify the statistic:
An executive at the home office of Big Rock Life Insurance is considering three branch managers as candidates for promotion to vice president. The branch reports include records showing sales volume for each salesperson in the branch (in hundreds of thousands of dollars). A random sample of these records was selected for salespersons in each branch. All three branches are located in cities in which per capita income is the same. The executive wishes to compare these samples to see if there is a significant difference in performance of salespersons in the three different branches. If so, the information will be used to determine which of the managers to promote.

Homechooling has become very popular in the United States, and many colleges try to attract students from this group. Evidence suggests that approximately 90% of all homeschooled children attend college. To check this claim, a random sample of 208 homeschooled children was obtained, and 180 of them were found to have attended college. The researcher wishes to determine whether the proportion of homeschool children who attend college is different from 0.90. Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion. Make sure to state and check all conditions and state your conclusion in context.
