Se sabe que las emisiones de hidrocarburos disminuyeron de forma dramática durante la década de 1990. Se realizó un estudio para comparar las emisiones de hidrocarburos a velocidad estacionaria, en partes por millón (ppm), para automóviles de 1990 y 2000. Se seleccionaron al azar 20 automóviles de cada modelo y se registraron sus niveles de emisión de hidrocarburos.

Religion and Theology Assignment Writing Servicethe first half of your review, answer the following questions about the epidemiological study described in the news article (study design, exposure, outcome, hypothesis or question, source of data, results).What was the question under study (the cause-effect relationship — identify the exposure and the outcome, and the hypothesized relationship)? [1.5 point]What was the source of data for this epidemiological investigation (person, place, time: note cases and controls if appropriate)? [1 point]What study design was used? [1.5 point]What were the key results? [1 point]Part 2*attached is the article******In the second half of your review, describe five criteria for causation (using Hill’s Causal Criteria) that apply to the study. Choose five “criteria for causation” and briefly describe the extent to which each is met. (Note: It’s okay to explain why criteria are not met for a maximum of three of these.) [5 points]Hill’s Causal CriteriaRemember, approximately half of your assignment should answer the questions about hypothesis, study design and primary results. The remaining half of your write-up should discuss the criteria for causation (i.e., Hill’s Causal Criteria). Please write which five criteria apply or don’t apply to the study’s findings on the Exposure-Outcome analysis. Please say why they apply based on the information provided in your review article. (e.g., the authors demonstrated a dose response because as children ate more Twinkies, they were more likely to be overweight). If you don’t understand Hill’s Causal Criteria, ask before writing your assignment and turning it in.Babies Born at High Altitudes May Be SmallerBeginning as low as 500 meters, the higher the altitude, the shorter the babies’ length atbirth and the slower their growth up to 5 years old.By Nicholas BakalarSept. 3, 2020Living at high altitudes may be associated with giving birth to smaller babies who growmore slowly through childhood.Researchers studied 964,299 children in 59 low- and middle-income countries in Asia,Africa, Eastern Europe, the Caribbean and Latin America. Among them, 106,441 livedabove an altitude of 1,500 meters, or about a mile high.The study, in JAMA Pediatrics, controlled for sex, maternal age, educational level andother factors, but still found a direct relationship between height and altitude: beginningas low as 500 meters above sea level, the higher the altitude, the shorter the babies’length at birth and the slower their growth up to 5 years old.The researchers also looked at a subset of 1,718 children living in what they labeled idealhome environments — that is, singleton births with access to safe water and sanitation,living in a household that owned a television and a car, born in hospitals to mothers withmore than a high school education, and having received required childhood vaccinations.The association was weaker, but still significant.THE FINDING IS LIKELY TO BE RELEVANT IN THE UNITED STATES AS WELL, ACCORDING TO THE LEAD AUTHOR, KALEAB BAYE, AN ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OFNUTRITION AT ADDIS ABABA UNIVERSITY IN ETHIOPIA.”THERE HAVE BEEN STUDIES CONSISTENTLY SHOWING THAT CHILDRENBORN IN COLORAD AT HIGH ALTITUDE HAVE LOWER AVERAGE BIRTH

A particular brand of tires claims that its deluxe tire averages at least 50,000 miles before it needs to be replaced. From past studies of this tire, the standard deviation is known to be 8000. A survey of owners of that tire design is conducted. From the 28 tires surveyed, the average lifespan was 46,500 miles with a standard deviation of 9800 miles. Do the data support the claim at the 5% level? can you provide the R code for this question

Question 1a-d. Theme park guests visit world class parks to experience the thrills of roller coasters and attractions. Guests often spend 2 to 4 hours waiting to ride a roller coaster for only 2 minutes (duration). Data was gathered from a survey of roller coasters from around the world: speed (“S” – top speed in miles per hour), height (“H” – maximum height above ground level in feet), and length (“L” – total length of track). Engineers calculated the mean duration of the surveyed 110 rollercoasters and found the duration mean to be 123 seconds. The engineers want to predict the duration of a roller coaster based on the variables, S, L, and H. The multiple linear regression yielded the following parameter estimates: 1. Write the regression equation to predict duration based on S, H, and L.1b. When the overall top speed and length of track remain constant, the marginal change in duration? Show Work.a. increases by 0.0165 seconds for each foot above ground level.b. decreases by 0.0165 seconds for each foot above ground level.c. increases by 0.5132 seconds for each foot above ground level.d. decreases by 0.5132 seconds for each foot above ground level.e. unable to determine from the data provided.1c. Which parameter is not a significant predictor of duration? Show Work. a. speed (“S” – top speed in miles per hour)b. height (“H” – maximum height above ground level in feet)c. length (“L” – total length of track in feet)d. Both a and c.e. Both a, b, and c.1d. Predict the duration of the new ride opening up in December 2020, if the maximum speed is 56 mph, maximum height above ground level in feet is 148 ft, and total length of track is 3221 ft. Show Work.a. Since there is not a significant linear correlation between height and duration, the best predicted duration value is the sample mean of 123 seconds as stated in the problem.b. 162.3 secondsc. 163.2 secondsd. 154.4 secondse. 154.5 seconds

A researcher conducts an independent-measures study examining how the brain chemical serotonin is related to aggression. One sample of rats serves as acontrol group and receives a placebo that does not affect normal levels of serotonin. Asecond sample of rats receives a drug that lowers brain levels of serotonin. Then theresearcher tests the animals by recording the number of aggressive responses each of therats display. The data are as follows. The research is specifically interested in whether ornot there is a difference between the control group and the group with low doses ofserotonin.Control Low Serotoninn = 10 n = 15 ̅ = 14 ̅ = 19 = 4.25 = 2.94a. Compute the pooled standard deviation. (Hint: be careful to find the pooledstandard deviation and not just the pooled variance).b. If the researcher is using = .05, what is the achieved power of the study? (Usethe pooled standard deviation from part a as the SD within each group)c. If the researcher used = .01, what would have been the achieved power of thestudy?d. Based on your answers to parts (b) and (c), what is the effect of changing alpha onthe power of a test?e. Now consider that the researcher used = .05 but tested whether the lowserotonin group had a higher number of aggressive responses than the controlgroup. What would have been the achieved power of the study?f. Comparing your responses to parts (b) and (e), what is the effect of using a one-tailed test compared to a two-tailed test?
