You are concerned that nausea may be a side effect of Tamiflu, but you cannot just give Tamiflu to patients with the flu and say that nausea is a side effect if people become nauseous. This is because nausea is common for people who have the flu. From past studies you know that about 31% of people who get the flu experience nausea. You collected data on 2211 patients who were taking Tamiflu to relieve symtoms of the flu, and found that 741 experienced nausea. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the percentage of people who take Tamiflu for the relief of flu symtoms and experience nausea is greater than 31%.

The well-known psychologist Dr. Elbod has established what he calls his Generalized Anxiety Scale (GAS). The GAS, which is a scale from 0 to 10, measures the "general anxiety" of an individual, with higher GAS scores corresponding to more anxiety. (Dr. Elbod's assessment of anxiety is based on a variety of measurements, both physiological and psychological.) We're interested in making predictions about individuals' sleep behavior based on their GAS scores. The bivariate data below give the GAS score (denoted by x) and the number of hours of sleep last night (denoted by y) for each of the fifteen adults participating in a study. A scatter plot of the data is shown in Figure 1. Also given is the product of the GAS score and the sleep time for each of the fifteen adults. (These products, written in the column labelled "xy", may aid in calculations.)

Early life corresponds to the first bacterial colonization of the digestive tract, creating a microbiome thought to play an important role in human development. What might be the effect of early exposure to antibiotics on children's development? One study followed 11,532 full-term babies all born in the county of Avon, United Kingdom, during 1991 and 1992. Exposures to antibiotics during infancy were recorded, along with measures of body mass at regular intervals over several years. The researchers found that antibiotic exposure during the first six months of life was associated with increased body mass later in childhood.
Scientists are interested in the placebo effect on adults with arthritis. They randomly choose 15 adults with arthritis and give them 2 treatments: effective drug and placebo for 1 week at different times. At the end of each week, the scientists ask the participants to rate their arthritic pain level on a scale of 1-5, where 1 is little pain and 5 is a lot of pain. The researchers then take the difference of their pain levels (affective drug - placebo). The data are below. 0, 1, 2, 2, 0, -1, 3, 1, 2, -1, 0, 1, -2, -1, -6 (a) Find the 5-number summary for the difference of arthritic pain levels. Minimum = Q₁ = Median = USE SALT Q3 = Maximum = (b) One of the conditions for inference for population mean difference of paired data is normality. Outliers within a data set cast a shadow of doubt upon the normality of the population distribution. Use the 5-number summary calculated in part (a) to determine if there are any outliers in the data set. Which of the values, if any, is an outlier…
Statistical studies have repeatedly shown that about 85% of all bicyclists where helmets. Further studies reveal that about 80% of those wearing helmets do not have head injuries. We do not have any data as to whether those who wear helmets are more safety conscious and therefore have fewer accidents. We do know that about 20% of those who do not wear helmets also experience no head injuries. That’s all the data we have. Mr. X was in a bicycle accident and suffered a head injury. (we do not know anything else, so do not try to factor in all sorts of possible scenarios). Given the above information what is the probability that Mr. X was wearing a helmet? H = Mr. X was wearing a helmetE = head injury The prior, p(H) = .85 Why? What does that figure represent?What is p(~H)?What is p(E|H)?What is p(E|~H)? Using Bayes’s formula what is the p(H|E)?(display the formula), and..Explain which way the final probability (the posterior) was revised…up or down. Why?
Is the flu making us sicker? A question of interest at the latest health summit was whether the latest strain of flu was causing adults to run a higher fever than previous strains. The average temperature for previous strains of flu was 101.4 degrees. A random sample of eighteen adults with the latest strain of flu was obtained. The data below represents their highest temperature while sick with the latest flu strain. Based on the data, can we conclude that the latest strain of flu is causing patients to run a higher fever, on average, than previous strains of flu? Let the probability of making a Type-I error be 10%. 102.1 101.8 100.9 103.8 102.8 100.8 102.5 102.0 103.1 104.0 104.2 101.1 100.3 101.9 101.7 101.8 102.3 104.1
Some commercial airlines recirculate about half the air in the cabin during flights as a way to improve fuel efficiency. Other airlines make a policy of NOT recirculating the air and instead, have fresh air from the atmosphere constantly being inserted into the cabin with the “old” air being pumped out of the plane. A total of 1100 passengers flying from San Francisco to Denver were used for an experiment. After their flight, they were each given a list of symptoms associated with the common cold. They were asked to report if they experienced cold symptoms within 24 hours of the flight landing. Of the 517 passengers who flew on planes that recirculate the air, 108 reported post-flight cold symptoms. Of the 583 passengers who flew on airlines that do not use recirculation in the cabin, 110 reported symptoms. Suppose now that we want to use the recirculation of air data to explore “Goal #2”, which is to resolve a hypothesis test about . a) If we want to resolve this hypothesis…
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.
In late July 2016, the Ohio Department of Health collected vials of water from 12 beaches on Lake Erie to investigate water quality. Those vials were being tested for E. coli bacteria which are found in human and animal feces and can cause illness and disease, should a swimmer accidentally ingest some water. These beaches had been found to be safe earlier in the summer with E. coli counts, on average of 88 per 100-millileter vial (about 3.4 ounces). However, E. coli counts can change due to weather and other variables. Experts consider it unsafe if a vial contains more than 88 E. coli bacteria. The mean E. coli count in the 12 vials was found to be 113.75 with a standard deviation of 93.9. Is this evidence that the water is unsafe? Test at the 1% level of significance. a) State the hypotheses. b) Find the test statistic and p-value. c) Based on your p-value, state whether or not you will reject the null hypothesis and a statement of your findings, relating back to the problem.

Most cases of cervical cancer are linked to a few strains of the human papilloma virus (HPV). The pharmaceutical company Merck developed a vaccine (Gardisil) against these HPV strains. Worldwide clinical trials followed young women after vaccination or administration of placebo for two to four years for signs of HPV-caused cervical cancer. Based on a sample of 100 women in the Gardisil group, 24 % developed cervical cancer, and based on a sample of 100 women in the placebo group, 34 % developed cervical cancer. Test the claim that the proportion of women who developed cervical cancer in the Gardisil group is less than the proportion of women who developed cervical cancer in the placebo group at a = 0.10. Round your answers to three decimal places, and round any interim calculations to four decimal places. Fill in the hypotheses below where p₁ denotes the proportion of women who developed cervical cancer in the Gardisil group and P2 denotes the proportion of women who developed cervical…
