A case-control study is performed to study the relationship between esophageal cancer and an exposure (exposure A). Esophageal cancer is a very rare disease (prevalence <<< 1%) in the general population. The cases were 100 persons with the cancer of whom 30 had exposure A. The cases were a random sample of individuals with cancer in the population. The controls were 200 persons without the cancer of whom 18 had exposure A The controls were a random sample of individuals without cancer in the population. Fisher's exact test gave a p-value of .01. What is the estimated odds ratio of cancer for those who had exposure A relative to those who did not have exposure A?
a. 1.7
b. 2.5
c. 3.3
d. 4.3
e. 6.3
f. None of the above, because odds ratios can never be estimated from a case-control study.
Refer to the information given in problem 4, which of the following is the only possible confidence interval for the (population level) odds ratio of cancer for those who had exposure A relative to those who did not have exposure A?
a. 0.8 to 2.1
b. 1.7 to 3.2
c. 2.3 to 8.2
d. - 1.2 to -0.3
g. None of the above, because neither an odds ratios nor a confidence interval for an odds ratio can be estimated from a case-control study.
The amount of time the university professors devote to their jobs per week is normally distributed with a mean of 52 hours and a standard deviation of 6 hours.
Would you expect the mean absolute percentage error to be more than or less than 0.25? Describe.

Assuming that the population standard deviations are the same, perform a two independent samples t-test on the hypotheses Null Hypothesis: μ1 = μ2, Alternative Hypothesis: μ1 ≠ μ2. What is the test statistic and p-value of this test?

Given that the mean of 100 observations is 42.5 and that their standard deviation is 6.313, find the sum of the squares of the observations.
Assume that in a hypothesis test with null hypothesis Ho: μ = 14.0 at a= 0.05, that a value of 13.0 for the sample mean results in the null hypothesis not being rejected. That corresponds to a confidence interval result of:
