There are three main types of cholesterol: HDL (high-density lipoproteins), LDL (low-density lipoproteins), and VLDL (very low-density lipoproteins). HDL is considered “good” cholesterol; LDL and VLDL are considered “bad” cholesterol. A standard fasting cholesterol blood test measures total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These numbers are used to estimate LDL and VLDL, which are difficult to measure directly. Your doctor recommends that your combined LDL/VLDL cholesterol level be less than 130 milligrams per deciliter, your HDL cholesterol level be at least 60 milligrams per deciliter, and your total cholesterol level be no more than 200 milligrams per deciliter. (a) Write a system of linear inequalities for the recommended cholesterol levels. Let x represent the HDL cholesterol level, and let y represent the combined LDL VLDL cholesterol level. (b) Graph the system of inequalities from part (a). Label any vertices of the solution region. (c) Is the following set of cholesterol levels within the recommendations? Explain. LDL/VLDL: 120 milligrams per deciliter HDL: 90 milligrams per deciliter Total: 210 milligrams per deciliter (d) Give an example of cholesterol levels in which the LDL/VLDL cholesterol level is too high but the HDL cholesterol level is acceptable. (e) Another recommendation is that the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol be less than 4 (that is, less than 4 to 1). Identify a point in the solution region from part (b) that meets this recommendation, and explain why it meets the recommendation.arrow_forwardDairy cattle are cattle that are bred for their ability to produce large quantities of milk. Lameness is a condition that can be detrimental to cattle since it can be painful and result in deleterious effects on the animal’s welfare. It is a condition in which cows have difficulty moving and especially walking. Investigators are interested in whether milk production in dairy cows is associated with whether or not the cow becomes lame. They think that the age of the cow (young or old) may confound and/or modify the relationship between milk production and lameness and so they collect information on the age of the cows as well. The data that cross classifies lame status and milk production status is stratified by age and provided in the tables below. Use SAS to complete each part. (a) Ignoring age, report the estimate for the OR and its corresponding 95% confidence interval. Interpret both. (b) Ignoring age, is milk production associated with lameness?

These buses should save travel time. The city decides to carry out a study of the effect of four different plans (for example a special lane and synchronized traffic lights) on the travel time of buses. Travel times (in minutes) are measured for multiple business days during peak hour travel when each of the plans is being implemented. The results appear in the table below.

- Explain how biostatistics and your knowledge of biostatistics might inform how you address the situation. SCENARIO: You are working for a foreign government that has had a disease epidemic in a certain region of their country, leading to the deaths of three million children. The disease is spread by mosquitoes, and the only quick and sure way to stop the epidemic is to spray Chemical H on the jungle environments where the mosquitoes live. Spraying the chemical will lead to environmental issues for 20 years. Feel free to add details or assumptions left ambiguous in the prompt. Explain how you address the situation through a religious standpoint and can potentially advance a Biblical worldview.

What type of analytics would you use in order to pinpoint where the problem is?arrow_forwardShrubs that Withstand Fire Fire is a serious threat to shrubs in dry climates. Some shrubs can resprout from their roots after their tops are destroyed. One study of resprouting took place in a dry area of Mexico. The investigators first clipped the tops of all the shrubs in the study. For the treatment, they then applied a propane torch to the stumps of the shrubs to simulate a fire, and for the control the stumps were left alone. The study included 24 shrubs of which 12 were randomly assigned to the treatment and the remaining 12 to the control. A shrub is a success if it resprouts. For the shrub Xerospirea hartwegiana, all 12 shrubs in the control group resprouted, whereas only 8 in the treatment group resprouted. How much does burning reduce the proportion of shrubs of this species that resprout? Give the 95% plus four confidence interval for the amount by which burning reduces the proportion of shrubs of this species that resprout. The plus four method is particularly helpful…arrow_forward
