What is the probability a person admitted to the hospital is paid a malpractice claim (to decimals)

Answers

Answer 1

Full question:

Astudy of 31,000 hospital admissions in New York State found that 4% of the admissions

led to treatment-caused injuries. One-seventh of these treatment-caused injuries resulted in

death, and one-fourth were caused by negligence. Malpractice claims were filed in one out

of 7.5 cases involving negligence, and payments were made in one out of every two claims

What is the probability a person admitted to the hospital is paid a malpractice claim (to decimals)

Answer:

Explanation:

Since 4% of admissions lead to treatment-caused injuries, we have 4/100×31000= 1240 treatment caused injuries for every 31000 people admitted

1/7 resulted in death = 1/7×1240= 177 people die for every 1240 treatment caused injuries

1/4 from negligence= 1/4×1240= 310 people get treatment caused injuries from negligence for every 1240 people

Malpractice claims in one of out of 7.5 cases of negligence= 13.3% of negligence cases= 0.1333×310= 41 claims for every 1240 people with treatment caused injuries

Payments were made in one out of every two claims, therefore payments for claims =50% of 41 cases of negligence= 21 payments(approximately) for every 1240 people with treatment caused injuries

Probability= number of favorable outcomes /total number of outcomes

Probability that a person admitted into the hospital will be paid a claim= 21/31000= 0.000677

Explain the steps to find x- and y- intercepts of an equation of the form Ax + By = C

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

For an equation of form Ax + By = C, we are given A, B, and C.

The x intercept is when the line/equation is on the x axis, or when y=0.

Therefore, if we plug y=0 into the equation Ax+By=C, and anything multiplied by 0 is equal to 0, we can say that

Ax + 0 = C

Ax = C

divide both sides by A

x  = C/A

Therefore, the x intercept is equal to C/A

Similarly, for the y intercept, or when the line is on the y axis (or when x=0), we have

A*0 + By = C

By = C

divide both sides by B

y= C/B at the y intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation matches that required for finding the length of a pendulum that has a period of 5.5 seconds. We can solve for L to find the length.

  [tex]5.5=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{L}{9.8}}\\\\\dfrac{5.5}{2\pi}=\sqrt{\dfrac{L}{9.8}}\\\\\left(\dfrac{5.5}{2\pi}\right)^2=\dfrac{L}{9.8}\\\\L=74.1125/\pi^2\approx7.509[/tex]

The length of a pendulum with period 5.5 seconds is about 7.51 meters.

Answer:

The length, L = 7.52 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

[tex]5.5= 2 \pi \sqrt\frac{L}{9.8}\\\\Sqauring on both the sides\\\\5.5 \times 5.5 = 4\pi^2 \times \frac{L}{9.8}\\\\L = 7.52 m[/tex]

You and a friend were invited to a

three pizzas and four bags of chips
and spent $48.05. You brought five
pizzas and two bags of chips and
spent $67.25. What is the cost of
each? Answer should be in (Pizza, Chips)

Answers

Answer:

Pizza = 12.35

Chips = 2.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Pizza = x

chips = y

3x + 4y = 48.05 - - - (1)

5x + 2y = 67.25 - - - (2)

Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by 3

15x + 20y = 240.25

15x + 6y = 201.75

Subtract :

20y - 6y = 240.25 - 201.75

14y = 38.50

y = 38.50/ 14

y = 2.75

Put y = 2.75 in (1)

3x + 4(2.75) = 48.05

3x + 11 = 48.05

3x = 48.05 - 11

3x = 37.05

x = 37.05 / 3

x = 12.35

Pizza = 12.35

Chips = 2.75

x² = 25

x = ± 5

So, the values of x are +5 and -5 and the values of y are +3 and -3

A polygraph (lie detector) is an instrument used to determine if an individual is telling the truth. These tests are considered to be 90% reliable. In other words, if an individual lies, there is a 0.90 probability that the test will detect a lie. Let there also be a 0.045 probability that the test erroneously detects a lie even when the individual is actually telling the truth. Consider the null hypothesis, "the individual is telling the truth," to answer the following questions
a. What is the probability of a Type I error? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
b. What is the probability of a Type II error? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

A) P(Type I error) = 0.045

B) P(Type II) error = 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the reliability of the test is 90% reliable.

Also, we are told that the probability that the test erroneously detects a lie even when the individual is actually telling the truth is 0.045.

Thus;

A) To calculate the probability of type I error:

From statistics, in this question we can say that the probability of a type I error is the probability that the test will erroneously detect a lie even though the individual is actually telling the truth. Thus;

Probability of (type I error) = P(rejecting true null) = 0.045

B) For probability of type II error, it is defined as the error where we accept a null hypothesis that is false. We can say that it produces a false negative and the formula is;

P(Type II) error = 1 - reliability

Reliability in the question is 0.90

Thus;

P(Type II) error = 1 - 0.9

P(Type II) error = 0.1

There are 3 boxes on stage that appear identical, but one is Lucky. The boxes are full of tickets; some are labeled "win" and the others are labeled "lose." In the Lucky box, ninety percent of the tickets are winners. In each of the other two boxes, only twelve percent of the tickets are winners.
1. You will pick a box at random and draw one ticket from it at random.2. What is the probability you will draw a winning ticket? 3. If you do draw a winning ticket, what is the chance it came from the Lucky box?

Answers

Answer:

2.-P = 0.38

3.-P [ Lb | Wt ]  =  0.788

Step-by-step explanation:

1.-Probability of choosing any box is, 1/3. So the probability of choosing the lucky box is 1/3

Let´s say the lucky box is the number 2 box  ( that consideration does not in any way change the problem generality)

Then we have

p₁ probability of choosing box  1 is 1/3   p₁´ Probability of win ticket is  0.12

p₂ probability of choosing box 2 is 1/3  p₂´Probability of win ticket is  0.90

p₃ probability of choosing box 3 is 1/3  p₃´ Probability of win ticket is  0.12

Then

P (of choosing a winning ticket is) = p₁*p₁´ + p₂*p₂´ +  p₃*p₃´

P  =  1/3*0.12 + 1/3*0.9 + 1/3*0.12

P  =  0.04 + 0.3 + 0.04

P = 0.38

3.- if I draw a winning ticket what is the probability it came from Lucky box

According to Bayes theorem

P [ Lb | Wt ]  =   P(Lb) * P[ Wt|Lb]/ P(Wt)

P(Lb) = 1/3  =  0.33333

P[Wt|Lb]  = 0.9

P(Wt) = 0.38

Then By substitution

P [ Lb | Wt ]  =  0.333 *  0.9 / 0.38

P [ Lb | Wt ]  =  0.788

Solve the literal equation: -24x-12=4y-12x

Answers

Answer:

y = 3(3x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation :

24x-12=4y-12x

Collect like terms

24x + 12x = 4y + 12

36x = 4y + 12

4y = 36x - 12

Divide through by 4

4y / 4 = 36x / 4 - 12 / 4

y = 9x - 3

y = 3(3x - 1)

(a) Find the average rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its radius r as r changes from 2 to each of the following.
(i) 2 to 3
(ii) 2 to 2.5
(iii) 2 to 2.1
(b) Find the instantaneous rate of change when r =2.

Answers

Answer:

ai) 5pi

aii) 4.5pi

aiii) 4.1pi

b) 4pi

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Area of a circle is given by pi×r^2.

The average rate of change of the area of a circle from r=b to r=a is (pi×b^2-pi×a^2)/(b-a).

Let's simplify this.

Factor pi from the terms in the numerator:

pi(b^2-a^2)/(b-a)

Factor the difference of squares in the numerator:

pi(b-a)(b+a)/(b-a)

"Cancel" common factor (b-a):

pi(b+a).

So let's write a conclusive statement about what we just came up with:

The average rate of change of the area of a circle from r=b to r=a is pi(b+a).

i) from 2 to 3 the average rate of change is pi(2+3)=5pi.

ii) from 2 to 2.5 the average rate of change is pi(2+2.5)=4.5pi.

from 2 to 2.1 the average rate of change is pi(2+2.1)=4.1pi.

b) It looks like a good guess at the instantaneous rate of change is 4pi following what the average rate of change of the area approached in parts i) through iii) as we got closer to making the other number 2.

Let's confirm by differentiating and then plugging in 2 for r.

A=pi×r^2

A'=pi×2r

At r=2, we have A'=pi×2(2)=4pi. It has been confirmed.

The largest angle in a triangle is six times the smallest angle. The middle angle is three times the smallest angle. Given that the sum of the angles in a triangle is , find the measure of each angle.

Answers

Answer:

Smallest: 18° Middle: 54° Largest: 108°

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by writing out what we know in a series of equations:

s= smallest angle, m= medium angle, L= largest angle.

Since the largest is 6 times the smallest we have:

L=6s

Since the middle is 3 times the smallest we have:

m=3s

Since the 3 interior angle measures of a triangle always must equal 180°, we have:

s+m+L=180

Then we plug in our L and m into the third equation:

s+3s+6s=180

Combining like terms and solving:

10s=180

s=18

Then we plug in 18 for s into the first 2 equations to get:

L= 6* 18

L= 108

and

m= 3* 18

m= 54

So s= 18, m= 54, and L=108.

To check the answer we can:

Add the three to make sure they equal 180. Make sure the smallest is the smallest, and the largest is the largest.
