QUESTION 2
Assume blood-glucose levels in a population of adult women are normally distributed with mean 90 mg/dL and standard deviation 38 mg/dL.
a. Suppose the "abnormal range" were defined to be glucose levels outside of 1 standard deviation of the mean (i.e., either at least 1 standard deviation
above the mean, or at least 1 standard deviation below mean). Individuals with abnormal levels will be retested. What percentage of individuals would be
called "abnormal" and need to be retested? What is the normal range of glucose levels in units of mg/dL?
b. Suppose the abnormal range were defined to be glucose levels outside of 2 standard deviations of the mean. What percentage of individuals would now
called "abnormal? What is the normal range of glucose levels (mg/dL)?
c. In this new study the experimental group, receiving a high carb diet ha a mean of 133 mg/dL glusose. at a aphal of 5%, is there a diference between the
control population and the experimental sample
