- Cholesterol Cholesterol in human blood is necessary, but too much can lead to health problems. 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_forwardTo what extent do data and information have an impact on one another?arrow_forwardUnit 5 Lab Background: Between the years of 1997 and 2003, the World Health Organization collected data on head circumference, arm circumference, and other body measurements for 8440 children from Brazil, Ghana, India, Norway, Oman and the USA. All of the children were healthy and breastfed by mothers who did not smoke. Children in the sample lived in socioeconomic conditions favorable to normal physical growth. Variables such as parental education level and income level were used to exclude children whose growth was “environmentally constrained”; however, low-weight full term babies were included if their mothers met socioeconomic and nutritional criteria. In short, the study design attempted to include healthy children from a wide range of ethnic and cultural groups whose home environments reasonably assured the conditions for healthy physical growth. This data was used to produce growth charts that are part of every pediatrician’s toolkit for monitoring a child’s overall…arrow_forward
- Non-Computer Problem: 1. Does having more gun stores in your neighborhood increase the risk of getting shot? Researchers looked at neighborhoods in a (made-up) city and recorded the number of stores that sold guns in a neighborhood and counted the number of deaths by shootings recorded in that neighborhood in a 6 month period. The data are below. Gun Stores Shooting Deaths 3 5 7 2 3 3 4 3 You may use computer software such as Excel to do the calculations for this problem if you wish, but you must show all ntermediate calculati performed. (In other words, you should show all the same work as if you had done the calculations by hand.) It is also fine to do the problem entirely by hand. and indicate the calculations were a. Make a scatterplot of gun stores (X) and deaths by shooting (Y). b. Describe the form of the relationship. Is there a linear pattern? Is the direction of the association positive or negative? c. Calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient. Explain in simple language…arrow_forwardHospital Beds. The number of hospital beds available in community hospitals is decreasing. Through advancement in care and technology, hospitals are getting more efficient. However, the aging and increasingly obese and diabetic population intensifies the need. The American Hospital Association Annual Survey, published by the American Hospital Association (AHA), gave the number of hospital beds available per 1000 people for each of the 50 states plus the District of Columbia for 2010. Following is a stem-and-leaf diagram of the data. The stems represent units and the leaves tenths (e.g., the first entry is 1.7). How many states (including the District of Columbia) had a. at least three but less than four hospital beds per 1000 people available? b. at least four and a half hospital beds per 1000 people available?arrow_forward(b) Tiffany obtained data about the gross domestic product (GDP) and the birth rate for 170 countries. She classified each GDP and each birth rate as either "low", "medium" or "high". There were 74 countries that had a medium GDP and 43 countries that had a high GDP. Among the countries that have 58 low birth rate, there were 3 countries that have a low GDP and 20 countries that have a medium GDP, whereas among the countries that have high birth rate, there were 45 countries that have a low GDP, 12 countries have a medium GDP and no country has a high GDP. i. Construct a contingency table to represent the information above. One of these countries is chosen at random. Find the probability that The country chosen has a low GDP or a medium birth rate. ii. iii. The country chosen has a low birth rate, given that it does not have a medium GDP. iv. States with a reason whether or not the events 'the country chosen has a medium GDP' and 'the country chosen has a medium birth rate' are…arrow_forward
- Question number 2 Part D onlyarrow_forwardAssume you have a project to develop a model to forecast natural gas consumption for the residential sector in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area. The level of natural gas consumption is influenced by a variety of factors. You decided that the most important factors include local weather, the state of the national and the local economies, the purchasing power of the dollar (because at least some of the natural gas is imported), and the prices for other commodities. The following variables have been identified and recorded on a quarterly basis (the data cover the period 1997Q1 through 2008Q3, with all data measured quarterly): GASCONS: consumption of natural gas in DC metro area (million cubic feet) AVETEMP: average temperature for the period in the DC metro area GDP: annualized percentage change in GDP UNEMP: percentage unemployment in the DC metro area GAS_PRICE: price of natural gas ($/100 cubic feet) DOLLAR: value index for the U.S. dollar relative to a basket of international…arrow_forwardThe sales manager of a large automotive parts distributor wants to estimate the total annual sales for each of the company’s regions. Three factors appear to be related to regional sales: the number of retail outlets in the region, the total personal income of the region, and the number of cars registered in the region. The following table shows the data for 10 regions that were gathered for last year sales. The excel data file for this problem is:final exam question 6B spring 2021.xlsx Region Annual sales ($ million) Number of retail outlets Number of automobiles registered (million) Personal income ($ billion) 1 37.702 1,739 9.27 85.4 2 24.196 1,221 5.86 60.7 3 32.055 1,846 8.81 68.1 4 3.611 120 4.81 20.1 5 17.625 1,096 10.31 33.8 6 45.919 2,290 11.62 95.1 7 29.600 1,687 8.96 69.3 8 8.114 241 6.28 16.5 9 20.116 649 7.77 34.9 10 12.994 1,427 10.92…arrow_forward
- Part 2: The owner of a pet store is trying to decide whether to discontinue selling specialty clothes for pets. She suspects that only 4% of the customers buy specialty clothes for their pets and thinks that she might be able to replace the clothes with more interesting and profitable items on the shelves. Before making a final decision she decides to keep track of the total number of customers for a day, and whether they purchase specialty clothes for their pet. Assuming the pet store owner is correct in thinking that only 4% of her customers purchase specialty clothes for their pets, how many customers should she expect before someone buys a garment for their pet? l. 2. What is the probability that she does not sell a gament until the 7th customer? Show work. What is the probability that exactly 3 of the first 10 customers buy specialty clothes for their pet? Show work. 4. What is the probability that at least 3 of the first 40 customers buy specialty clothes for their pet? Show…arrow_forwardYou are analyzing the number of bird species found in each county of Massachusetts. You have one observation per county, corresponding to the total number of species observed there during the Christmas Bird Count (a national bird count organized mainly by volunteers every year on Christmas). Your predictor variables are: population, percent forested habitat, number of highways that cross the county. What kind of model do you use to analyze these data? For the above model, you think there may be a non-linear effect of forest habitat based on the number of highways that cross the county, as this may cause the habitat to be more fragmented. You do not think there are any other non-linear effects. Assume "county" is a variable for which county the data comes from Assume "highways" is the number of highways in the county Assume "forest" is the percent of forested habitat Assume "population" is the population of the county Group of answer choices # species ~ county + highways *…arrow_forwardYou get a job as the manager of a popular ice cream store in your hometown. One of your first concerns is determining how much ice cream you should stock to meet the demands of your customers. You suspect that the number of customers buying ice cream probably depends on several factors. In looking through company files, you discover that the former manager collected considerable data. Last summer, a typical week produced the following data: Day Temperature (degrees Fahrenheit) Number of Transactions Gross Receipts (in dollars) Monday 78 238 3014 Tuesday 73 194 2842 Wednesday 70 172 2141 Thursday 75 185 2235 Friday 83 270 4505 Saturday 89 320 5021 Sunday 94 280 4442 On the graph below, the temperature is graphed on the x axis and the number of transactions is graphed on the y axis.
