In a clinical trial, 28 out of 830 patients taking a prescription drug daily complained of flu like symptoms. Suppose that it is known that 2.8% of patients taking competing drugs complain of flu like symptoms. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that more than 2.8% of this drug's users experience flu like symptoms as a side effect at the level of significance of a=0.05? Use any method, however, follow the PHANTOMS acronym

A new cream that advertises that it can reduce wrinkles and improve skin was subject to a recent study. A sample of 68 women over the age of 50 used the new cream for 6 months. Of those 68 women, 39 of them reported skin improvement(as judged by a dermatologist). Is this evidence that the cream will improve the skin of more than 40% of women over the age of 50? Test using a= 0.05 (a) Test statistic: z= (b) The final conclusion is...A. There is not sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis that p=0.4 . That is, there is not sufficient evidence to reject that the cream can improve the skin of more than 40% of women over 50.B. We can reject the null hypothesis that p=0.4 and accept that p>0.4. That is, the cream can improve the skin of more than 40% of women over 50.
The recommended daily dietary allowance for zinc among males older than age 50 years is 15 mg/day. An article reports the following summary data on intake for a sample of males age 65−74 years: n = 111, x = 12.4, and s = 6.69. Does this data indicate that average daily zinc intake in the population of all males age 65−74 falls below the recommended allowance?

A clinical trial is planned to compare an experimental medication designed to lower blood pressure to a pla- cebo. Before starting the trial, a pilot study is conducted involving seven participants. The objective of the study is to assess how systolic blood pressure (SBP) changes over time if left untreated. SBP is measured at baseline and again 4 weeks later. Is there a statistically significant difference in SBP over time? Run the test at a 5% level of significance.

A cross-sectional study of 1,900 participants looked at the association between Normal Course Load (12-15 credit hours (CH)) and Anxiety among upperclassmen college students (Junior & Senior). The study included 1,000 students with a High Course Load. This study also discovered a total of 850 cases of Anxiety. Of those with a Normal course load 12% were diagnosed with anxiety like symptoms by a school psychologist.

You are reviewing data on a clinical trial of 50-70-year-olds, on the effects of a vitamin supplement on arthritis. In the general population for this age range, 35% of the people have some arthritis symptoms. In the clinical trial of 500 people, they find that 170 have some arthritis symptoms. What do you conclude about the efficacy of the vitamin supplement? (Show relevant work)
The dose-response effect is best described as When the value of the response variable changes in a meaningful way with the dosage of the suspected cause when similar studies produce similar results when all other possible causes are ruled out when the suspected precedes the response variable

The U.S. Department of Energy reported that 51.7% of homes were heated by natural gas. A random sample of 221 homes in Kentucky found that 115 were heated by natural gas. Does the evidence support the claim for Kentucky at the a = 0.05 level? Are the results applicable across the country? Why?
A 2019 study surveyed Norwegian parents about their children's eating habits and taste sensitivities. We are interested in seeing if there is a relationship between sensitivity to sweetness and emotional overeating. The study reports an F* = 2.34 with dfb 3 and dfw = 96. How many levels of 'sensitivity to sweetness' were used in the study? How many subjects participated in the entire study?
In 2019, investigators from Brown University would like to determine the relationship between nail polish remover and ovarian cancer in women. A cohort of n=1000 beauticians aged 18-64 years old was identified and followed up after five years. After the follow-up period, there were x = 20 new cases of breast cancer were diagnosed. It is known that the incidence computed in this study is equal to the incidence known in America at a 0.01 level of significance. Identify the appropriate test to be used and conclude using the 7 steps of hypothesis.
The federal government recently granted funds for a special program designed to reduce crime in high-crime areas. A study of the results of the program in high-crime areas of Miami, Florida, are being examined to test the effectiveness of the program. The difference in crimes reported is calculated as (crimes after - crimes before). You want to test whether the average number of crimes reported after are different from the average number of crimes reported before. What are the hypotheses for this test?
