Practice 1.1 Definitions of Statistics, Probability, and Key Terms Use the following information to answer the next five exercises. Studies are often done by pharmaceutical companies to determine the effectiveness of a treatment program. Suppose that a new drug is currently under study to address a respiratory virus. It is given to patients once the patient exhibits symptoms of the virus. Of interest is the average (mean) length of time in days from the time the patient starts the treatment until the symptoms are alleviated. Two researchers each follow a different set of 40 patients with the respiratory virus from the start of treatment until the symptoms are alleviated. The following data (in days) are collected. Researcher A: 3; 4; 11; 15; 16; 17; 22; 44; 37; 16; 14; 24; 25; 15; 26; 27; 33; 29; 35; 44; 13; 21; 22; 10; 12; 8; 40; 32; 26; 27; 31; 34; 29; 17; 8; 24; 18; 47; 33; 34 Researcher B: 3; 14; 11; 5; 16; 17; 28; 41; 31; 18; 14; 14; 26; 25; 21; 22; 31; 2; 35; 44; 23; 21; 21; 16; 12; 18; 41; 22; 16; 25; 33; 34; 29; 13; 18; 24; 23; 42; 33; 29 Determine what the key terms refer to in the example for Researcher A. 1. population 2. sample 3. parameter 4. statistic 5. variable nd Sampling
