A healthcare provider monitors the number of CAT scans performed each month in each of its clinics. The most recent year of data for a particular clinic follows (the reported variable is the number of CAT scans each month expressed as the number of CAT scans per thousand members of the health plan):
2.31, 2.09, 2.36, 1.95, 1.98, 2.25, 2.16, 2.07, 1.88, 1.94, 1.97, 2.02.
a. Find a 95% two-sided CI on the mean number of CAT scans performed each month at this clinic.
b. Historically, the mean number of scans performed by all clinics in the system has been 1.95. If there any evidence that this particular clinic performs more CAT scans on average than the overall system average?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: a. 1.981 < μ < 2.18

              b. Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. For this sample, we will use t-distribution because we're estimating the standard deviation, i.e., we are calculating the standard deviation, and the sample is small, n = 12.

First, we calculate mean of the sample:

[tex]\overline{x}=\frac{\Sigma x}{n}[/tex]

[tex]\overline{x}=\frac{2.31=2.09+...+1.97+2.02}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\overline{x}=[/tex] 2.08

Now, we estimate standard deviation:

[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{\Sigma (x-\overline{x})^{2}}{n-1} }[/tex]

[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{(2.31-2.08)^{2}+...+(2.02-2.08)^{2}}{11} }[/tex]

s = 0.1564

For t-score, we need to determine degree of freedom and [tex]\frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex]:

df = 12 - 1

df = 11

[tex]\alpha[/tex] = 1 - 0.95

α = 0.05

[tex]\frac{\alpha}{2}=[/tex] 0.025

Then, t-score is

[tex]t_{11,0.025}[/tex] = 2.201

The interval will be

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] ± [tex]t.\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

2.08 ± [tex]2.201\frac{0.1564}{\sqrt{12} }[/tex]

2.08 ± 0.099

The 95% two-sided CI on the mean is 1.981 < μ < 2.18.

B. We are 95% confident that the true population mean for this clinic is between 1.981 and 2.18. Since the mean number performed by all clinics has been 1.95, and this mean is less than the interval, there is evidence that this particular clinic performs more scans than the overall system average.

The figure of y = x will be a straight line with slope 1 and they ;lie in the first quadrant and the third quadrant.

What is Linear Function?

A linear function can be defined as the function whose graph is a straight line. It can also be defined as the function with one or more variables but does not have exponents to the variables or the exponent of the variable is 1.

We have to choose 5 ordered pairs first whose first and second coordinate are equal.

Let the coordinates be (-4, -4), (-2, -2), (0, 0), (2, 2) and (4, 4).

The ordered pairs are of the form (x, x), that both the coordinates have same value.

So we get a linear function y = x

The graph of a linear function will be a straight line.

Since y = x, the graph will be a straight line which tends to the positive direction and the slope of the line = 1.

That is , the angle that the line making with the X axis is 45°.

And the figure lies on first and third quadrant.

Hence the figure of y = x would be a straight line with slope 1.

Write two mixed numbers so that all rules are applied:

2. The difference of the numbers is equal to the smaller number.
3. The sum of the numbers is natural number

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

“One number is larger than the other by 4 2/3”

x = y + 4⅔

“The difference of the numbers is equal to the smaller number.”

x-y = y

x = 2y

y + 4⅔ = 2y

y = 4⅔

x = 2y = 9⅓

Answers

Answer:

A. 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction is another way to divide , So in some math problems they want you to either flip the fraction or divide the numbers .

Option A is correct, the expression 2÷3 written as a fraction is 2/3.

What is Fraction?

A fraction represents a part of a whole.

We have to write  2÷3  as a fraction.

Two divided by three.

We have to split the number two by three parts.

We know that any division expression can be written as a fraction, the numerator is a part and denominator is a whole.

Two is the numerator and three is the denominator.

The numerator represents the part and three represents the whole.

This we can write in fraction as 2/3.

Two by three is the fraction form of two divided by three.

Where as [tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex], is not a fraction, it is a mixed number.

3/2, is not equivalent to 2 ÷ 3, it represents the fraction one and a half and [tex]2\frac{1}{3}[/tex] is not equivalent to 2 ÷ 3, it represents the mixed number two and one-third.

What is (7-2)^2+3/ 1/6
( / ) this means divide and (^) that means to the power

Answers

Answer:
43

Explanation:
To start off you always handle the whatever's in your parentheses. 7-2 is 5.
Now your equation should look like this-
(5)^2 +3/1/6
5 to the power of 2 is 25 (5 times 5)
so now instead of 5 you have 25:
25 +3/1/6

To divide fractions you first have to make 3 and fraction so just put a one below it so it's still it's full value: 3/1
When dividing fractions you actually end up multiplying, you keep the first fraction the same (3/1) and you flip the second one (1/6 which is now 6/1) and then you multiply.
3/1 * 6/1 equals 18/1 which actually just equals 18 and then you get 25 + 18 from the parentheses and that equals 43 :)

This will allow for an easy comparison of the sales data from last year and this year.

Once each month has been assigned a digit, the data can be organized and analyzed to determine the proportion of months where memberships sold decreased, increased, and remained the same, as well as the mean monthly sales from last year and this year.

Finally, random digits can be assigned to each sales figure from last year and this year to create a simulated data set that can be used for further analysis and modeling.
