From the survival times of female colon cancer patients draw a random sample of n = 60 and proceed with the same analysis that you did for the male patients in Exercise 7.4.19.
Exercise 7.4.19
In the colon cancer data base, we also give the survival times for both male and female patients. From the male data base draw a random sample of n = 60 survival times and proceed to perform the same analysis as you did in Exercise 7.5.11.
Exercise 7.5.11
(a) Structure a histogram of the 60 measurement of the tumor sizes in mm.
(b) Let part a) guide you, if possible in performing goodness-of-fit testing at a = 0.05 to identify the best possible pdf that characterizes the probabilistic behavior of the tumor sizes.
(c) Write the pdf completely with appropriate parameter estimates and obtain and interpret its expected value.
