Chapter 11.6, Problem 37E
Using the model fit to the data of Exercise 11.8, construct a 95% confidence interval for the
11.8 Laboratory experiments designed to measure LC50 (lethal concentration killing 50% of the test species) values for the effect of certain toxicants on fish are run by two different methods. One method has water continuously flowing through laboratory tanks, and the other method has static water conditions. For purposes of establishing criteria for toxicants, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) wants to adjust all results to the flow-through condition. Thus, a model is needed to relate the two types of observations. Observations on toxicants examined under both static and flow-through conditions yielded the data in the accompanying table (measurements in parts per million, ppm). Fit the model
- a What interpretation can you give to the results?
- b Estimate the flow-through value for a toxicant with an LC50 static value of x = 12 ppm.

- a Calculate SSE and S2 for Exercise 11.8.
- b Refer to Exercise 11.8. Code the x-values in a convenient manner and fit a simple linear model to the LC50 measurements presented there. Compute SSE and compare your answer to the result of part (a).

A methodological study had established values for the MIC on a scale that measured physical function: The MIC for improvement (higher scores) was 4.0, and the MIC for deterioration (lower scores) was 3.0. Lawrence studied clinically significant change in physical functioning over a 1-year period for a sample of 100 patients with COPD. Some change score information is presented below for 10 patients. Which patients experienced clinically significant change in physical function in the 12-month period between assessments?

Welsch, Davis, Burke, and Williams (2002) conducted a study to evaluate the
effectiveness of a carbohydrate-electrolyte drink on sports performance and
endurance. Experienced athletes were given either a carbohydrate-electrolyte drink
or a placebo while they were tested on a series of high-intensity exercises. One
measure was how much time it took for the athletes to run to fatigue. Data similar to
the results obtained in the study are shown in the following table:
