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 34% of people who get the flu experience nausea.
You collected data on 1926 patients who were taking
Tamiflu to relieve symtoms of the flu, and found that 711
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 34%.

Their triglyceride levels are measured before and after the study, and the physician wants to know if the measurements have changed. Which of the following statements is true: The pre and post treatment values are independent of each other. The pre and post treatment values cannot be validly compared because they are not independent of each other. Post treatment values are randomly sampled from pre treatment values.

- our friend, Stan Darderror, recently completed a cognitive ability test as part of his assessment center preparation for job applications. He received a report of his IQ score, along with general population level information, but he was not quite sure how to interpret the results. Being a good friend, you decide to go through the report with him and answer any questions he may have. According to the general information, the population parameters for this IQ test are as follows: μ = 100, σ = 15. The population distribution is normal. Stan received a score of IQ = 107. Stan wants to lie on his resume about how smart he is, but not too much. He wants to say that he is in the top 85% of the population in terms of IQ. What IQ score should Stan say he got on his IQ test?arrow_forwardRead the following text that describes an analytical study and complete the table below it: This research investigated the association or the relationship between some factors, namely (1) type of cars, (2) age and (3) gender of the car drivers and car accidents. More specifically, the researcher wanted to find out if these three independent factors had an impact on car accidents. He hypothesized that "car accidents do not increase or decrease as a result of the age of the drivers, gender of the driver and type of car". The sample of this research consisted of 2000 car drivers of different gender, ages and types of cars. The researcher designed a questionnaire to collect the primary data required. The questionnaire was very short. It elicited some demographic data from the respondents such as their gender, their age, and the type of car they used. The questionnaire also elicited from the participants if they had had accidents, the number of accidents they had and at what age they had…arrow_forwardFor each of the following titled reports, indicate whether the research study involved was exploratory, descriptive, causal, or predictive and explain your reasoning.
