P3.The following raw data were collected by a health an analyst from 50 smokers. It represents Risk Index (R.I.) (measured as concentration ratio of certain compounds in the blood) which is used as a strong indicator for getting a cardiovascular (CV) disease.
We would like to study the effect of each of the three factors (age, mass, and No. of cigarettes) on the R.I. :
Answer the following:
- Classify the data into 3 groups according to age: Young: age < 35, Middle aged: between 36 and 59, and Old: age >60.
Then study if the Risk Index is affected by age class.
- Classify the data into 3 groups according to body mass: regular mass <70, fat mass between shall be better? Show the evidence and comment on it.
- Do a nonlinear fitting for the data using the following equation
R.I. = co + c1*Age + c2*Mass+c3*Cig^C4
- Compare the predicted and measured R.I. values for both linear and nonlinear fitting. Which fitting is better? Suggest a measure that can tell you quantitatively which fitting is better.
