In a certain jurisdiction, all students in Grade Three are required to take a standardized test to evaluate their math comprehension skills.The file contains these data resulting from a random sample of n=30 schools within this jurisdiction. From these data you wish to estimate the model Yi=β0+β1Xi+ei where Xi is the percentage of Grade Three students in School i who live below the poverty line and Yi is the average mathematics comprehension score for all Grade Three students in the same school, School i. The observed data for the X variable is labled perbelowpoverty and the observed data for the Y variable is labeled mathscore in the file.Import (either hand type or load the file) data into R Studio, then answer the following questions based on the data.(a) Create a scatterplot of the data. What can you say about the nature of the relationship between the percentage of Grade Three students living below the poverty line in a certain school and the school's average Grade Three…

Cardiovascular Disease Suppose the incidence rate of myocardial infarction (MI) was 5 per 1000 among 45- to 54-year-old men in 2000. To look at changes in incidence over time, 5000 men in this age group were followed for 1 year starting in 2010. Fifteen new cases of MI were found. 7.14 Of the 15 new MI cases in the preceding study, 5 died within 24 hours. Test whether the 24-hour case- fatality rate changed from 2000 to 2010.
Pi- P2 Z. = %3D SE Suppose a drug company is developing a vaccine, designed to protect against a particular virus. The company states that the vaccine will be equally effective for men and women. In its initial stage, a researcher selects a random sample of 200 men and 100 women independently. At the end of the study, 15 of the men and 10 of the women showed symptoms of the virus after taking the vaccine. Is there enough evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference in the proportions of men and women who show symptoms of the virus after taking the vaccine? (a) State the appropriate hypotheses to answer this question. (b) Compute the test-statistic. (c) (i) Calculate the p-value. (ii) Interpret the p-value you have found. (d) State your conclusion in context of the situation. Page 1 135
Polyunsaturated fatty acids in the diet favorably affect several risk factors for cardiovascular disease. The principal dietary polyunsaturated fat is linoleic acid. Suppose we randomly selected twelve adults for our study. We took their blood pressure measurements (systolic blood pressure) at the start and recorded them for each adult. Then we placed required these adults to consume 23g/day of safflower oil which is high in linoleic acid for four weeks. At the end of the four weeks, we took another systolic blood pressure(SBP) measurement. The paired data is provided below: Subject 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Baseline SBP 119.67 100.00 123.56 109.89 96.22 133.33 115.78 126.39 122.78 117.44 111.33 92.39 1-month SBP 117.33 98.78 123.83 107.67 95.67 128.89 113.22 121.56 126.33 110.39 107.00 93.06 Use the appropriate nonparametric test at alpha level of 0.05, to test whether the diet heavy in linoleic acid increases systolic blood pressure (SBP).

Green Tea and Prostate Cancer A preliminary study suggests a benefit from green tea for those at risk of prostate cancer. The study involved 60 men with PIN lesions, some of which turn into prostate cancer. Half the men, randomly determined, were given 600 mg a day of a green tea extract while the other half were given a placebo. The study was double-blind, and the results after one year are shown in the table below. Treatment Cancer No Cancer Green Tea 1 29 Placebo 9 21 (a) Test at a 5% significant level to see if the sample provide evidence that taking green tea extract reduces the risk of developing prostate cancer. (b) Find 98% confidence interval for the difference between two population proportions of men with PIN lesions who get prostate cancer after taking green tea extract and after taking placebo for a year. Interpret the C.I. result.

A Pew poll taken in 2010 surveyed 830 people aged 18-29 and found that 166 of themhad one or more tattoos. Based on this survey, can you conclude that the percentageof people aged 18-29 who have a tattoo is less than 25%? Use the α = 0.01 level ofsignificance.
Q5: The theory that resistance by mosquitoes to an insecticide is due to a single dominant gene has been examined. Homozygous resistant mosquitoes were crossed with homozygous susceptible mosquitoes to give A heterozygous population. These were crossed to the homozygous susceptible population. Of this back cross progeny 465 were exposed to the insecticide, 264 died. Is the percentage killed significantly different to the percentage predicted by the model?
Ina study of patients on sodium-restricted diets, 55 patients with hypertension were studied. Among these, 24 were on sodium-restricted diets. Of 149 patients without hypertension, 36 were on sodium-restricted diets. Test the hypothesis that, in the sampled population, the proportion of patients on sodium-restricted diets is higher among patients with hypertension than among patients without hypertension. Test at α = 0.01.
S-adenosyl methionine (SAM-e) is a naturally occurring compound in human cells that is thought to have an effect on depression symptoms. Suppose that a researcher is interested in testing SAM-e on patients who are struggling with Alzheimer’s. She obtains a sample of n = 30 patients and asks each person to take the suggested dosage each day for 4 weeks. At the end of the 4-week period, each individual takes the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), which is a 21-item, multiple-choice self-report inventory for measuring the severity of depression. The scores from the sample produced a mean of M = 26.2 with a standard deviation of s = 2.97. In the general population of Alzheimer’s patients, the standardized test is known to have a population mean of μ = 28.1. Because there are no previous studies using SAM-e with this population, the researcher doesn’t know how it will affect these patients; therefore, she uses a two-tailed single-sample t test to test the hypothesis. From the following,…
To evaluate the coagulation effects of three drugs, 30 healthy volunteers were randomly assigned into 3 groups and injected with different drugs. Their relevant coagulation times were measured as follows A(group=1): 36.8 34.4 34.3 35.7 33.2 31.1 34.3 29.8 35.4 31.2B(group=2): 40.0 35.5 36.7 39.3 40.1 36.8 33.4 38.3 38.4 39.8C(group=3): 32.9 37.9 30.5 31.1 34.7 37.6 40.2 38.1 32.4 35.6Questions: ① If you want to evaluate whether the coagulation effects of the three drugs are different, which method should be used? and what are the model assumptionsfor the application of this method?② Compare the difference of the coagulation effects among three drugs by SPSS,present the main results and make interpretation.③ Make pairwise comparisons of the efficacy of the three drugs, write out the method of pairwise comparison you adopted (just write one method) and the corresponding p-values.
