4. Assume the below life table was constructed from following individuals who were diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer and decided not to receive treatment of any form. Calculate the survival probability at year 1 using the Kaplan-Meir approach and interpret the results. Number of Survival Probability 1 Number Time in Years Number at Risk, Nt Deaths, Dt Censored, C 20 1 20 3 17 3 16 1 A) The probability of surviving 1 year after being diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer is .85. B) The probability of surviving 1 year after being diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer is .85 for the individuals being followed in this study. C) The probability of surviving 1 year after being diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer is .85 for individuals who decided against all forms of treatment. D) The probability of surviving 1 year after being diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer is .85 for the individuals being followed in this study and for individuals who decided against all forms of treatment.

A small river is found to be polluted due to the chemical waste from two major industries, A and B. Due to the strict standards enforced by the EPA, the probability of controlling the pollutions from A and B are 0.7 and 0.85, respectively, in the next two years. It is estimated that, if only one of the industries complies with the strict standards of EPA, there is a 75 percent probability of controlling the pollution in the river to an acceptable level. (a) Find the probability of controlling the pollution in the river in the next two years. (b) If the pollution in the river is not controlled in the next two years, what is the probability that it is caused entirely by industry A?

Does playing Mozart for unborn babies result in having children with higher IQs?    A psychologist obtains a random sample of 30 mothers in the first trimester of their pregnancy. The mothers are asked to play Mozart in the house at least 45 minutes each day until they give birth. We know that IQs are normally distributed with a mean of 100.    A few years after their births the children were given an IQ test and the IQs of the 30 children in the study resulted in a sample mean of 104.2. Assume the population standard deviation for IQ of children is 15.    Is there evidence that the children who listen to Mozart for at least 45 minutes each day during pregnancy have higher IQs at the 0.05 level of significance? Use the p-value approach. a. Define the parameter we are testing and setup a hypothesis test to see if the mean IQ of children who listened to Mozart at least 45 minutes a day during pregnancy is higher than the national mean of 100: b. Calculate the test statistics for this…

If arrivals occur at a mean rate of 2.6 events per minute the exponential probability of waiting more than 1.5 minutes for the next arrival is is a .0202 or .0122 or .0535 or .2564

Use the p-value approach.   Select the correct conclusion for this test: We fail to reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is less than the level of significance. We fail to reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is greater than the level of significance. We…
