B) Are any of the variables included in the study ordinal? If so, identify the ordinal variables. 2. Suppose a researcher conducts an experiment to assess the measuring capabilities of a new device aimed at detecting the boiling point of a chemical. The chemical has a known boiling point of 120 degrees Fahrenheit. His measurement device is tested 10 times, and results in the following measurements for boiling point. What can we say about the device with regards to its precision, accuracy, and potential bias?

In order to get the best estimate for the project, the surveyor first decides to sample 2 of 15 census tracts, and then to sample 5 households from each tract. Assume there are only 10 households in each tract. The surveyor randomly assigns each tract in the city a number 01-15, and each household in each tract a number 01-10. Use the following random number table to select each tract, and then each household, continuing along the line. 058791 211403 098746 170528 086401 370614 097810 036418 340514 A) What kind of sampling strategy is this? B) Which census tracts and households will be selected? 4. Investigators are interested in the relationship between sleep apnea and Alzheimer’s disease. In order to more thoroughly understand the relationship, these investigators decide to recruit 50 participants with Alzheimer’s and 50 participants without Alzheimer’s, and look at their history of sleep apnea. A) What type of study design is this? B) What are the explanatory and response variables? 5. The following measurements represent the systolic and diastolic blood pressures (mm HG) for a group of individuals awaiting confirmation for enrollment in a study investigating the efficacy of a new anti-hypertensive medication.

B) Suppose that Hypertension is categorized by a Systolic blood pressure above 159 mm HG or a diastolic blood pressure above 99 mm HG. What is the relative frequency of the potential participants with hypertension? 6. The following table reports the fasting glucose levels of a sample of potential participants in a research study investigating the efficacy of a new insulin-type drug.
