An article in the Archives of Interval Medicine reported that in a sample of 244 men, 73 had elevated total cholesterol levels (more than 200 milligrams per deciliter). In a sample of 232 women, 44 had elevated cholesterol levels. a. Find a 99% confidence interval about the difference in the proportion of men versus women who had elevated total cholesterol levels. We are 99% confident the true difference in the proportion of men versus women who had elevated total cholesterol...

Recent incidents of food contamination have caused great concern among consumers. An article reported that 33 of 80 randomly selected Brand A brand chickens tested positively for either campylobacter or salmonella (or both), the leading bacterial causes of food-borne disease, whereas 69 of 80 Brand B brand chickens tested positive. (a) Does it appear that the true proportion of non-contaminated Brand A chickens differs from that for Brand B? Carry out a test of hypotheses using a significance level 0.01....
Note: you can copy any of the following symbols from here: p o o2 S It has been reported that the probability that an individual will develop schizophrenia over their lifetime is 0.004. Medical researches selected a random sample of 3000 individuals and determined that 17 of them developed schizophrenia. Is there evidence to support the claim that the true proportion of people who will develop schizophrenia is different from 0.004 at the a = 0.05 level of significance? (Source:...
Lactation promotes a temporary loss of bone mass to provide adequate amounts of calcium for milk production. A paper gave the following data on total body bone mineral content (TBBMC) (g) for a sample both during lactation (L) and in the postweaning period (P).

Please show all work. Use the following information for questions 1-10: A researcher is creating a new treatment protocol for Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), a form of preleukemia. Following the old treatment protocol, 32% of patients with MDS will develop leukemia within 5 years of MDS diagnosis. He believes his new treatment protocol will lead to fewer MDS patients developing leukemia. He takes a random sample of 100 individuals on his new treatment protocol. Of these 100 individuals, 27 develop leukemia...
Unlike most packaged food products, alcohol beverage container labels are not required to show calorie or nutrient content. An article reported on a pilot study in which each of 56 individuals in a sample was asked to estimate the calorie content of a 12 oz can of beer known to contain 153 calories. The resulting sample mean estimated calorie levels 192 the sample standard deviation was 86. Does this data suggest that the true average estimated calorie content in the...
To compare the mean lengths of time required for the bodily absorption of two drugs A and B, 20 people were randomly selected and assigned to receive one of the drugs. The length of time (in minutes) for the drug to reach a specified level in the blood was recorded, and the data summary is given in the table. Drug A Drug Do the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in mean times to absorption for the two...
Unlike most packaged food products, alcohol beverage container labels are not required to show calorie or nutrient content. An article reported on a pilot study in which each of 58 individuals in a sample was asked to estimate the calorie content of a 12 oz can of beer known to contain 153 calories. The resulting sample mean estimated calorie level was 191 and the sample standard deviation was 87. Does this data suggest that the true average estimated calorie content...
