Alzheimer’s Disease:
As baby boomers enter their golden years, the number of people afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease is expected to rise dramatically. In a study published in the Journal of Neurology, the number of people with Alzheimer’s disease in the United States age 65 years and over is projected to be
Nt=0.00525t2+0.075t+4.7 0≤t≤4
Million in decade t, where t=0 corresponds to 2010.
- What is the projected number of people with Alzheimer’s disease in the United States age 65 years and over in 2030?
- How fast is the number of people with Alzheimer’s disease in the United States age 65 years and over projected to grow in 2030?
- How fast is the rate of growth of people with Alzheimer’s disease in the United States age 65 years and over projected to change in the period covered in the study?

- .A new, miracle diabetes drug that diminishes major symptoms of diabetes has been approved by the FDA. Health care professionals and researchers believe that the new drug will prolong lifespan of diabetes patients. If the population is in steady state and the incidence is constant, what will the effect of this new drug be on the prevalence of diabetes in the population? Explain.arrow_forward150 30 0 www ii) 14 i) 21 ii) 28 days 35 42 (a) The Figure above shows simulated data on the number of people (in thousands) who use public transport every day in Melbourne. i) 49 56 Does this time series exhibit a time trend? If there is a time trend, explain what could explain this trend. (b) Consider the following estimated model of industrial production (Y), which uses quarterly data from 2001q1 to 2022q4 and includes a constant, a time trend (t) and 3 seasonal dummy variables (Q1, Q2, and Q3) in the equation. Does this time series exhibit seasonality? What statistical test could you perform to test whether there is seasonality? If there is seasonality, explain what could explain this seasonal pattern. log(Y) = 6.01 +0.05t -0.0201 -0.03Q2 -0.0103 Interpret the estimated coefficients for the time trend and three seasonal dummies. Based on the estimated equation above, what would be the forecast for industrial production for the first quarter of 2024?arrow_forward31-arrow_forward
- Many investors and financial analysts believe the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) gives a good barometer of the overall stock market. On January 31, 2006, 9 of the 30 stocks making up the DJIA increased in price (The Wall Street Journal, February 1, 2006). On the basis of this fact, a financial analyst claims we can assume that 30% of the stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) went up the same day.A sample of 80 stocks traded on the NYSE that day showed that 11 went up.You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of stocks that went up is is significantly less than 0.3. You use a significance level of α=0.02α=0.02.What is the test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to three decimal places.)test statistic = What is the p-value for this sample? (Report answer accurate to four decimal places.)p-value = The p-value is... less than (or equal to) αα greater than αα This test statistic leads to a decision to... reject the null accept the null fail…arrow_forwardIt is known that in any given year, • 90% of the people in a city move to the suburbs; • 80% of the people in the suburbs do not move to the city.

- 13) In a clinical study of an allergy drug, 115 of the 260 subjects reported experiencing significant relief from their symptoms. From the data, a 90% C.I. for the percentage of all subjects reported experiencing significant relief from their symptoms is (,blank ), blank (round to the 3rd decimal place).arrow_forwardIs the national crime rate really going down? Some sociologists say yes! They say that the reason for the decline in crime rates in the 1980s and 1990s is demographics. It seems that the population is aging, and older people commit fewer crimes. According to the FBI and the Justice Department, 70% of all arrests are of males aged 15 to 34 years†. Suppose you are a sociologist in Rock Springs, Wyoming, and a random sample of police files showed that of 36 arrests last month, 24 were of males aged 15 to 34 years. Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim that the population proportion of such arrests in Rock Springs is different from 70%. (a) What is the level of significance?
