Treating circulatory disease: Angioplasty is a medical procedure in which an obstructed blood vessel is widened. In some cases, a wire mesh tube, called a stent, is placed in the vessel to help it remain open. A study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of a bare metal stent with one that has been coated with a drug designed to prevent reblocking of the vessel. A total of 5319 patients received bare metal stents, and of these, 848 needed treatment for reblocking within a year. A total of 1122 received drug-coated stents, and 142 of them required treatment within a year. Can you conclude that the proportion of patients who needed retreatment differs between those who received bare metal stents and those who received drug-coated stents? Let p1 denote the proportion of patients with bare metal stents who needed retreatment and p2 denote the proportion of patients with drug-coated stents who needed retreatment. Use the =α0.10 level of significance and the P -value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator. Part: 0 / 4 0 of 4 Parts Complete Part 1 of 4

Arthritis is a very commonly occurring affliction. It is a major cause of lost work time and often results in serious disability. Of the many types of arthritis, the most common type is osteoarthritis. This condition is frequently due to wear and tear in the joints and is more likely to be found in people over 50. It is very painful in the weight-bearing joints, such as the knees and hips. Cartilage wears away on the bone ends, causing pain and swelling. Osteoarthritis may develop after an injury such as a bone fracture or a joint dislocation. To reduce the amount of time osteoarthritis patients are absent from work, it is important for them to have effective pain relief. An experiment was conducted to compare the effectiveness of three new analgesics: A1, A2, and A3. A clinic evaluated a large group of patients and identified 45 patients with a moderate level of pain. Fifteen of the 45 persons were then randomly assigned to one of the three analgesics. The patients were then…

After stinging its victim, the honeybee leaves behind the barbed stinger, poison sac and muscles that continue to pump venom into the wound. Visscher et al. (1996) compared the effects of two methods of removing the stinger left behind: scraping off with a credit card or pinching off with thumb and index finger. A total of 40 stings were induced on volunteers. Twenty were removed with the credit card method and 20 were removed with the pinching method. The size of the subsequent welt by each measurement came from two volunteers (both authors of the study), each of whom received one treatment 10 times on the one arm and the other treatment 10 times on the other arm. Pinching led to a slightly smaller average welt, but the difference between the methods was not significant. Does this study include a control group? Enter the number of the best answer choice from the options below Yes, the control group is the group receiving the credit card method. Yes, the control group is the…

Eyeglassomatic manufactures eyeglasses for different retailers. They test to see how many defective lenses they made in a given time period and found that 10% of all lenses had defects of some type. Looking at the type of defects, they found in a three-month time period that out of 34,024 defective lenses, 5840 were due to scratches. Are there more defects from scratches than from all other causes? State the Type I and Type II errors in this case.State the Type I error. Concluding that the proportion of defects from scratches is 10%, when in reality it is less than 10%. Concluding that the proportion of defects from scratches is 10%, when in reality it is higher than 10%.

Workers in the office like to drink coffee during work. A doctor is concerned about this situation since the too much coffee consumption may result to long-term health problems. However, studies suggests that there is no risk in drinking three cups of coffee per day, which is about 250 mg of caffeine. The doctor wants to know if the amount of caffeine consumed by the workers is within tolerable limits. He randomly selected 20 students and found that they consume an average of 270 mg of caffeine each day with a standard deviation of 48 mg. Assume that the daily amount of caffeine consumed by students follow the normal distribution.1. Which of the following sets of hypotheses should be used in this study? A. Ho: μ = 250 vs. Ha: μ > 250 B. Ho: μ ≤ 250 vs. Ha: μ > 250 C. Ho: μ = 270 vs. Ha: μ > 270 D. Ho: μ = 270 vs. Ha: μ ≠ 270 2. Which of the following is(are) TRUE? I.

A study was conducted to determine if the performance of a certain type of surgery on young horses had any effect on certain kinds of blood cell types in the animal. Fluid samples were taken from each of six foals before and after surgery. The samples were analyzed for the number of postoperative white blood cell (WBC) leukocytes. A preoperative measure of WVBC leukocytes was also measured, with the accompanying results. Use a paired sample t-test to determine if there is a significant change in WBC leukocytes with the surgery. Click here to view the leukocyte data Click here to view page 1 of the table of critical values of the t-distribution. Click here to view page 2 of the table of critical values of the t-distribution. Let sample 1 be the presurgery data, let sample 2 be the postsurgery data, and let pp = H, - Hɔ. State the null and alternative hypotheses.

Cheek teeth of extinct primates. The characteristics of cheek teeth (e.g., molars) can provide anthropologists with information on the dietary habits of extinct mammals. The cheek teeth of an extinct primate species were the subject of research reported in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology (Vol. 142, 2010). A total of 18 cheek teeth extracted from skulls discovered in western Wyoming were analyzed. Researchers recorded the dentary depth of molars (in millimeters) for a sample of 18 cheek teeth extracted from skulls. These depth measurements are listed in the accompanying table. Anthropologists know that the mean dentary depth of molars in an extinct primate species— called Species A—is 15 millimeters. Is there evidence to indicate that the sample of 18 cheek teeth come from some other extinct primate species (i.e., some species other than Species A)? The data are given below (you will need to put it into a single column). You will need to calculate the sample…
A study was conducted to examine the effect of diet cola consumption on calcium levels in women. A sample of 16 healthy women aged 18 to 40 were randomly assigned to drink 24 ounces of either diet cola or water. Their urine was collected for three hours after ingestion of the beverage and calcium excretion (in mg) was measured. The data are stored in ColaCalcium.
