Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test. In Exercises 5–8, use the Wilcoxon rank-sum test.
7. Clinical Trials of Lipitor The sample data below are changes in LDL cholesterol levels in clinical trials of Lipitor (atorvastatin). It was claimed that Lipitor had an effect on LDL cholesterol. (The data are based on results given in a Parke-Davis memo from David G. Orloff, M.D., the medical team leader for clinical trials of Lipitor. Pfizer declined to provide the author with the original data values.) Negative values represent decreases in LDL cholesterol. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that for those treated with 20 mg of Lipitor and those treated with 80 mg of Lipitor, changes in LDL cholesterol have the same median. What do the results suggest?

- Rental revenue (in millions of dollars) 4. Can movie rental revenue be predicted? A movie studio wishes to determine the relationship between the revenue from rental of comedies on streaming services and the revenue generated from the theatrical release of such movies. The studio has the following bivariate data from a sample of fifteen comedies released over the past five years. These data give the revenue x from theatrical release (in millions of dollars) and the revenue y from streaming service rentals (in millions of dollars) for each of the fifteen movies. Also shown are the scatter plot and the least- squares regression line for the data. The equation for this line is y=3.30 +0.15x.
