A pharmacist is concerned with recent rise in narcotic prescriptionssuch as Percocet (Oxycodone-Acetaminophen) and Vicodin(Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Acetaminophen), because unwittingpatients could take Tylenol (Acetaminophen) too.Too muchacetaminophen can result in permanent liver damage and even death!To check, the pharmacist counted the last 100 prescriptions she filledto see if more than 30% of all prescriptions involved either Percocetor Vicodin, which are both considered narcotics. As she checked eachprescription, she marked down 1 = "Narcotic" or 0 = "Non-narcotic".%DAs it turns out, 41 were for Percocet or Vicodin and 59 were not.Estimate with 95% confidence the proportion of the sampleprescriptions that are for narcotic pain killers:.41 +.0964.41 + .080930 + .0809.30 +.0964

You are concerned that nausea may be a side effect of Tamiflu, but you cannot just give Tamiflu to patients with the flu and say that nausea is a side effect if people become nauseous. However, past research indicates that about 30% of people who get the flu experience nausea, and you believe that the percentage of those who experience nausea while having the flu and taking Tamiflu will be greater than 30%, which would indicate that nausea is a side effect of Tamiflu.If you are going to test this claim at the 0.05 significance level, what would be your null and alternative hypotheses? H0: ? p = p ≠ p < p > p ≤ p ≥ μ = μ ≠ μ < μ > μ ≤ μ ≥ H1: ? p = p ≠ p < p > p ≤ p ≥ μ = μ ≠ μ < μ > μ ≤ μ ≥ What type of hypothesis test should you conduct (left-, right-, or two-tailed)? left-tailed right-tailed two-tailed

We want to know if students with bronchitis at 5 years have more cough symptoms when they grow up. Out of 290 children with Bronchitis at Age 5, 32 of them has cough symptoms at Age 12. Out of 970 children with no Bronchitis at Age 5, 43 of them has cough symptoms at Age 12. Is the cough symptom equally prevalent in both populations?
Suppose that your friend sees the results from question 4 and concludes that heavier drinking causes more tobacco use. Do you agree or disagree with this conclusion? Explain.
A serious side effect of allergy medicines is that they cause drowsiness, which can cause many problems for the individuals taking them. In recent years, a new non-drowsy allergy medicine has been developed. The company that created the medicine claims to be the first, once-a-day, non-drowsy allergy medicine (call it Medicine A). An independent research group wanted to check on this claim by comparing medicine A with another allergy medicine not advertised as non-drowsy (call it Medicine B). A random sample of 3,193 allergy sufferers was selected and each individual was randomly assigned to take either Medicine A or Medicine B. From the Medicine A group, 114 of 1,604 reported drowsiness and from the Medicine B group, 155 of 1,589 reported drowsiness. Calculate and label the two sample proportions separately. Next, calculate the difference between these sample proportions by subtracting (Medicine A – Medicine B). Complete these calculations by hand, label each of them, and…

As humans we consume food. The body extracts good things such as proteins and vitamins and throws away waste. A typical waste product is uric acid. High levels of uric acid can be an indication of conditions such as gout, kidney disease, and cancer. For females a high level of uric acid is 6 mg/dL or more and for males a high level of uric acid is 7 mg/dL or more. Suppose, over a period of months, an adult male was given 9 blood tests for uric acid. The results of each blood test are shown below. results 10.24 10.1 11.19 11.1 9.34 9.58 9.63 10.59 9.58 The distribution of uric acid in healthy adult males is normally distributed with known population standard deviation, σ=1.15σ=1.15 mg/dl.Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean of uric acid in this adult male's blood. Assume the sample of blood tests were given in a way that's equivalent to a simple random sample. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) margin of error ? mg/dLlower limit? mg/dLupper limit?…
