Compute Weibull model
For a Weibull model with covariates, we can compute the survival curve just as we did for the Weibull model without covariates. The only thing we need to do is specify the covariate values for a given survival curve in the predict() function. This can be done with the argument newdata.

# Weibull model
wbmod <- survreg(Surv(___, ___) ~ ___, data = GBSG2)
coef(wbmod)
# Retrieve survival curve from model
surv <- seq(.99, .01, by = -.01)
t_yes <- predict(___, type = "quantile", p = ___,
newdata = data.frame(horTh = ___))
# Take a look at survival curve
str(t_yes)
