In a crossover trial comparing a new drug to a standard, π denotes the probability that the new one is judged better. It is desired to estimate π and test H0 : π = 0.5 against H1 : π =/= 0.5. In 20 independent observations, the new drug is better each time. (a) Find and PLOT(I can't figure out how to plot it) the likelihood function, but I know it's. Give the ML estimate of π. (b) Conduct a Wald...

A clinical trial was designed to compare a new drug for lowering cholesterol to a placebo. The 100 subjects who took the new drug had a mean cholesterol of 180.5 with a standard deviation of 23.3. The 100 subjects who took the placebo had a mean cholesterol of 204.1 with a standard deviation of 22.1. Construct a two-sided 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two means, assuming equal variance. Give an interpretation of the confidence interval. You MUST...

Part A: Suppose you work for a pharmaceutical company that is testing a new drug to treat ulcerative colitis. You conduct a random sample of 34 patients on the new drug and 14 of them indicated a decrease in symptoms since starting the drug regimen. You construct a 90% confidence interval for this proportion to be ( 0.2733 , 0.5502 ). What is the correct interpretation of this confidence interval? 1) We are certain that 90% of patients will be...

A clinical trial was conducted to test whether a drug for treating insomnia is effective. Researchers administered the drug and measured the time it took 23 randomly selected subjects to fall asleep. The subjects had a mean wake time of 96.6 min and a sample standard deviation of 24.5 min. Assume that the population of wake times is normally distributed. (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval. You may use your calculator. Round to 1 decimals. (b) Are the assumptions met?...

(2 points) A study is conducted to determine if a newly designed text book is more helpful to learning the material than the old edition. The mean score on the final exam for a course using the old edition is 75. Ten randomly selected people who used the new text take the final exam. Their scores are shown in the table below.

3. A drug company is developing a new pregnancy-test kit for use on an outpatient basis. The company uses the pregnancy test on 100 women who are known to be pregnant, for whom 95 test results are positive. The company uses the pregnancy test on 100 other women who are known to not be pregnant, of whom 99 test negative. (a) What is the sensitivity of the test? (b) What is the specificity of the test? (c) The company anticipates...

Question 2 (15 marks in total] University students are expected to attend all classes within a course. But university administrators and teaching staff are aware that student attendance can be adversely impacted by a variety of factors including travel time. Also, when attendance rates drop, there are often concerns expressed that it is students most at risk of performing poorly who are not attending class. To better understand some of these issues, a sample of undergraduate students was drawn from...
