The mean height of women in a country (ages 20−29) is 63.9 inches. A random sample of 60 women in this age group is selected. What is the probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 65 inches? Assume σ=2.84. The probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 65 inches is nothing.
A study entitled "Antidepressant Medication and Breast Cancer Risk" (Amer. J. of Epi, late 1990's) stated in the methods section of the paper that "Cases were an age-stratified (< 50 and ≥ 50 years of age) random sample of women aged 25-74 years diagnosed with primary breast cancer during 1995 and 1996 (pathology report confirmed) and recorded in the population-based Ontario Cancer Registry. As the 1-year survival for breast cancer is 90%, surrogate respondents were not used. Population controls, aged 25-74 years, were randomly sampled from the property assessment rolls of the Ontario Ministry of Finance; this database includes all home owners and tenants and lists age, sex, and address." Question: Discuss the authors' approach to the identification of cases with respect to the potential for selection bias.
A group of doctors investigated sleep-related breathing disorders in adults with traumatic brain injuries (TBI). The respiratory disturbanceindex (RDI), which is the number of apneic and hypopneic episodes per hour of sleep, was used as a measure of severity of sleep apnea.An RDI of 5 or more indicates sleep-related breathing disturbances. The DIs for the females and males in the study are as follows. Usethe technology of your choice to answer the following questions. Explain your answers. Complete (a) and (b) below.a.

Return to the waiting times given for the physicians office in Problem 19. a. Considering only offices without a wait-tracking system, what is the z-score for the 10th patient in the sample (wait time 5 37 minutes)? b. Considering only offices with a wait-tracking system, what is the z-score for the 6th patient in the sample (wait time 5 37 minutes)? How does this z-score compare with the z-score you calculated for part a? c. Based on z-scores, do the data for offices without a wait-tracking system contain any outliers? Based on z-scores, do the data for offices without a wait-tracking system contain any outliers? 19. Suppose that the average waiting time for a patient at a physicians office is just over 29 minutes. To address the issue of long patient wait times, some physicians offices are using wait-tracking systems to notify patients of expected wait times. Patients can adjust their arrival times based on this information and spend less time in waiting rooms. The following data show wait times (in minutes) for a sample of patients at offices that do not have a wait-tracking system and wait times for a sample of patients at offices with such systems. a. What are the mean and median patient wait times for offices with a wait-tracking system? What are the mean and median patient wait times for offices without a wait-tracking system? b. What are the variance and standard deviation of patient wait times for offices with a wait-tracking system? What are the variance and standard deviation of patient wait times for visits to offices without a wait tracking system? c. Create a box plot for patient wait times for offices without a wait-tracking system.
S4 E. Babies come in all shapes and sizes when they are born, so we are often interested in what variables may help determine a baby's birthweight. In particular, we want to know if a longer gestational period (in weeks) will increase the baby's birthweight (in grams). A random sample of first-time mothers was selected and for each mother her gestational period and baby's birthweight were recorded. What is the explanatory variable?

A professor wants to investigate the relationship between the grades students obtain in their midterm exam (X) and the grades they obtain (Y) in the final exam. The professor collects data from 60 randomly chosen students. The estimated OLS regression is Ý = 45 +0.85X, where Y, denotes the predicted value of the grades obtained in the final exam by the " individual and X, denotes the grades obtained in the midterm exam. From the sample data he makes the following calculations: 60 3230 48, j= 1 60 3D1 ^2 where u, is the square of the residual for the " observation. He wants to test whether the grades obtained in the midterm exam have any effect on the grades obtained in the final exam or not. Which of the following are the null and the alternative hypotheses of the test the professor wishes to conduct? OA. Ho B1=0 vs. H B1 #0. Ho: B1=0 vs. H B, #0. O B. Ho B=D0.85 vs. H, B,#0.85. C.

The owner of a fish market has an assistant who has determined that the weights of catfish are normally distributed, with a mean of 3.2 pounds and a standard deviation of 0.8 pound. If a sample of 64 fish yields a mean of 3.1 pounds, what is probability of obtaining a sample mean this large or larger? 0.3085 0.6915 0.0228 0.8413
A sociologist was hired by a large city hospital to investigate the relationship between the number of unauthorized days that employees are absent per year and the distance (miles) between home and work for the employees. A sample of 10 employees was chosen, and the following data were collected. a. Develop a scatter chart for these data. Does a linear relationship appear reasonable? Explain. b. Use the data to develop an estimated regression equation that could be used to predict the number of days absent given the distance to work. What is the estimated regression model? c. What is the 99% confidence interval for the regression parameter 1? Based on this interval, what conclusion can you make about the hypotheses that the regression parameter 1 is equal to zero? d. What is the 99% confidence interval for the regression parameter 0? Based on this interval, what conclusion can you make about the hypotheses that the regression parameter 0 is equal to zero? e. How much of the variation in the sample values of number of days absent does the model you estimated in part (b) explain?
