Researchers want to know if there is a strong relationship between the creatine clearance of kidneys and the age of patients at a local hospital. 33 Patients were selected and a regression model was constructed to estimate the creatine clearance of kidneys based on age. Use the information provided below to perform a complete test of utility for this model. Determine the ability of this model to estimate the creatine clearance of kidneys based on the age of a patient given the additional information about the model below: Use this model to estimate the average creatine clearance for all patients who are 60 years old.

Medical researchers have developed a new artificial heart constructed primarily of titanium and plastic. The heart will last and operate almost indefinitely once it is implanted in the patient’s body, but the battery pack needs to be recharged about every 4.5 hours. A random sample of 36 battery packs is selected and subjected to a life test. The average life of these batteries is 4.027 hours. Assume that battery life is normally distributed with standard deviation σ= 0.24 hour. Is there evidence to support the claim that mean battery life fails to meet the stated life? Use α= 0.01
