To combat the novel coronavirus (COVID-10) pandemic, the Bloomington Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. aggressively conducted a clinical trial with 8 patients for its new drug Remdiessivir. Patient’s health condition was evaluated before and after receiving the medication with a rating system in which 10 points represents complete recovery and 1 for being the worst condition. (a) Use the collected data below to assess the efficacy of the drug by conducting a hypothesis test at 5% significance level.

The average number of people in a family that received welfare for various years is given below.

Part (b) Calculate the least squares line. Put the equation in the form of: ? = a + bx. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

? = +   x

Part (g) Using the rounded least squares line, estimate the welfare family sizes for 1960 and 1995. (Use your equation from part (b). Round your answer to one decimal place.)

Does the least squares line give an accurate estimate for those years? Explain why or why not.

Yes, we can estimate the welfare family size for any year using the least squares line.No, the years are outside the domain of 1969 to 1991.     

Part (h) Are there any outliers in the above data?

Yes, (1969, 4.0) is an outlier.

Yes, (1991, 2.9) is an outlier.     

Yes, (1969, 4.0) and (1991, 2.9) are outliers.

No, there are no outliers.

Part (i) What is the estimated average welfare family size for 1987? (Use your equation from part (b). Round your answer to one decimal place.)

( ) people

Part (j) What is the slope of the least squares (best-fit) line? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Refer the table below on the average excess return of the U.S. equity market and the standard deviation of that excess return. Suppose that the U.S. market is your risky portfolio.

a. If your risk-aversion coefficient is A = 4.9 and you believe that the entire 1927–2018 period is representative of future expected performance, what fraction of your portfolio should be allocated to T-bills and what fraction to equity? Assume your utility function is U = E(r) − 0.5 × Aσ². (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

b. If your risk-aversion coefficient is A = 4.9 and you believe that the entire 1973–1995 period is representative of future expected performance, what fraction of your portfolio should be allocated to T-bills and what fraction to equity? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
