High Cholesterol: A group of eight individuals with high cholesterol levels were given a new drug that was designed to lower cholesterol levels. Cholesterol levels, in milligrams per deciliter, were measured before and after treatment for each individual, with the following results: Individual Before After 1 237 208 2 239 202 3 230 185 4 245 217 5 242 180 6 282 215 7 243 182 8 286 195 Send data to Excel Part: 0 / 2 Part 1 of 2 (a) Construct a 99.9% confidence interval for the mean reduction in cholesterol level. Let d represent the cholesterol level before treatment minus the cholesterol level after. Use the TI-84 calculator and round the answers to at least one decimal place.

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States, N. Ehlers measured the difference in corneal thickness (in microns) between the two eyes of eight patients. Each patient had one eye that had glaucoma and one eye that was normal. The difference was measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma. Corneal thickness is important because it can mask an accurate reading of eye pressure. Use ? = .05. Q) If a participant has the same corneal thickness in their normal eye as the eye with Glaucoma, what would be the value for difference: measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma.

When testing a new drug, scientists measure the amount of the active ingredient that is absorbed by the body. In a study done at the Colorado School of Mines, a new antifungal medication that was designed to be applied to the skin was tested. The medication was applied to the skin of eight adult subjects. One hour later, the amount of active ingredient that had been absorbed into the skin was measured for each subject. The results, in micrograms, were 1.28 1.36 2.01 3.20 1.00 2.50 3.36 3.50 Is the mean amount absorbed greater than 2 micrograms. Use the a = 0.05 level of significance. (A) Yes (В) No

Hypothesis: H0: μd=0Ha: μd≠0 Using output  Test statistics : t=0.134P value=0.897 Degrees of freedom (df): df=7 Level of significance: α=0.05  Decision: P value > 0.05 thus we fails to reject null hypothesis. Question a)Write a report summarizing your findings. When writing the report consider that medical staff estimate that a difference of 4.5 microns or more could impact on their ability to interpret eye pressure correctly. b) Define for the hypothesis stated in part b) what a type 1 error and type 2 error would mean. Is it possible…

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States, N. Ehlers measured the difference in corneal thickness (in microns) between the two eyes of eight patients. Each patient had one eye that had glaucoma and one eye that was normal. The difference was measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma. Corneal thickness is important because it can mask an accurate reading of eye pressure. Use ? = .05.   If a participant has the same corneal thickness in their normal eye as the eye with Glaucoma, what would be the value for difference: measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma.

A sample of 150 plastic panels was selected and tested for shock resistance and scratch resistance. The results are summarized in the Table 4 below. Table 4: Total number of shock and scratch resistance Scratch(high) Resistance(low) Shock(high) 0.42 Resistance(low) 0.26 0.14 0.18

Periodically, the county Water Department tests the drinking water of homeowners for contaminants such as lead and copper. The lead and copper levels in water specimens collected in 1998 for a sample of 10 residents of a subdevelopement of the county are shown below. lead (g/L) copper (mg/L) 2.9 0.2 5.1 4.2 5.5 1.2 0.3 1.3 4.9 1.7 0.133 0.774 0.214 0.671 0.444 0.234 0.357 0.761 0.176 0.888 (a) Construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean lead level in water specimans of the subdevelopment.
