We have a population of 100 breast cancer patients of which half have received some form of treatment (i.e. chemo, radiation, etc). Use this information to answer the following questions a. If X represents the number of breast cancer patients who have received treatment in the sample, what distribution it follows? b. If we sample 10 patients, how likely will 4 have received treatment? c. If we sample 25 patients, how likely will 5 have received treatment? d. If we sample 5 patients, how likely will at most 2 have received treatment?

We know that the proportion of women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer in the general population is 0.013 or 1.3%. We think that a meaningful difference in proportion of women who have ever been diagnosed with breast cancer is |p0-p1| = 0.02 or 2% difference. for all cal. let alpha = 0.05 A. What sample size is needed to have 90% poor to detect this difference assuming that we use a two sided test. B. If we have...

Problem: Proportion of "Cured” Cancer Patients: How Does Canada Compare with Europe? Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death for both Canadian men and women, responsible for the most potential years of life lost to cancer. Lung cancer alone accounts for 28% of all cancer deaths in Canada (32%. in Quebec). Most forms of lung cancer start insidiously and produce no apparent symptoms until they are too far advanced. Consequently, the chances of being cured of lung cancer...

Assume that we have a finite population of 5 elements on which we measured a random variable X. Below are the observations of Xover the population: {0,1,2,3,4). Assume that we want to select a random sample of size 3 form this population. Let S be the sample variance. a. Find the distribution of S2 b. Calculate E(S) c. Calculate Var(s)

Read article published in US Today titled “Does eating organic food prevent cancer? Yes, a new study suggests”. Identify the following: What is Y (outcome)? What is primary X (explanatory var)? What type of data? Write down an empirical model that you think was estimated: Do you think that established relationship is causal or it is s imply association? Why? People who regularly eat organic food are less likely to develop cancer than those who don't, according to a new...

Now that we have some familiarity with random variables, we are going to start a discussion about one of the most important random variables in statistics—the sample mean, x . Now why is x a random variable? Because its value depends on the outcome of selecting a random sample. Therefore, we can talk about its distribution, its mean or expected value, and its standard deviation. The following activity is designed to introduce the concept of the sampling distribution for x...

Part 4 Some studies have shown that physical activity has many benefits for mental health. The director of health care planning in a local hospital thinks that if he introduced exercise based therapy for people admitted with depression, this may reduce hospital costs by reducing the likelihood of these patients being re- admitted to the hospital. However, before introducing exercise based therapy for all patients with depression he wanted...

STATISTICS HYPOTHESIS It appears that not all people are equally vulnerable to cancer. People from some ethnic groups have higher or lower than average chances of developing certain types of cancer. Jennifer's manager Dr. Steinberg thinks that the company's insurance policy should reflect this fact and constantly raises this question in the meetings. To be more convincing, he asked Jennifer Nguyen to take a random sample of those Healthy Life clients who belong to ethnic group X (at least on...
