There is some evidence that “young blood” might improve the health, both physically and cognitively, of elderly people (or mice). Exercise 2.83 on page 85 introduces one study in which old mice were randomly assigned to receive transfusions of blood from either young mice or old mice. Researchers then measured the number of minutes each of the old mice was able to run on a treadmill. The data are stored in YoungBlood. We wish to estimate the difference in the mean length of time on the treadmill, between those mice getting young blood and those mice getting old blood. Use StatKey or other technology to find and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the difference in means.

In the United States, 39% of the population has type A blood. Suppose 8 people from the U.S. are randomly chosen. Use the formula for binomial probabilities P(k) = (n/k) p^k (1 - p)^(n - k) to find the probability that exactly 6 of the 8 people sampled have type A blood. (a) First fill in the details of the binomial probability formula: P(6) = ( ) ( )^ ( )^ (b) The probability, accurate to 4 decimal places, is

A 10-year study conducted by the American Heart Association provided data on how age, blood pressure, and smoking relate to the risk of strokes. Data from a portion of this study follow. Risk is interpreted as the probability (times 100) that a person will have a stroke over the next 10-year period. For the smoker variable, 1 indicates a smoker and 0 indicates a nonsmoker.

Develop an estimated regression equation that can be used to predict the risk of stroke given the age and blood pressure level. Enter negative value as negative number. Use Table 4 in Appendix B.
