Among 43,592 in-hospital patients who had cardiac arrest during the day, 23,549 survived. Among 27,963 patients at night, 7,804

survived. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that survival rates are the same for day and night.

Answer:

<u>Conclusion.</u><u> The proportions are not equal. Therefore, survival rates are not the same for the day and night. Also, there's enough evidence to affirm that the rates of survival are higher during the date, compared to the night.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all. Let's identify the problem: This is a hypothesis testing for a difference of proportions. Check out attached images to follow through the process.

Using the z-distribution, it is found that since the p-value of the test is less than 0.01, there is enough evidence to conclude that survival rates are different for day and night.

<h3>What are the hypothesis tested?</h3>

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the proportions are the same, that is, the subtraction of them is 0, hence:

H_0: p_D - p_N = 0

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportions are different, that is:

H_1: p_D - p_N \neq 0

<h3>What are the mean and the standard error for the distribution of differences?</h3>

For each sample, they are given as follows:

  • p_D = \frac{23549}{43592} = 0.5402, s_D = \sqrt{\frac{0.5402(0.4598)}{43592}} = 0.0024
  • p_N = \frac{7804}{27963} = 0.2791, s_N = \sqrt{\frac{0.2791(0.6209)}{27963}} = 0.0025

Hence, for the distribution of differences, they are given by:

  • \overline{p} = p_D - p_N = 0.5402 - 0.2791 = 0.2611
  • s = \sqrt{s_D^2 + s_N^2} = \sqrt{0.0024^2 + 0.0025^2} = 0.0035.

<h3>What is the test statistic?</h3>

The test statistic is given by:

z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{s}

In which p = 0 is the value tested at the null hypothesis.

Hence:

z = 0.2611/0.0035

z = 74.6.

<h3>What is the p-value of the test?</h3>

Using a z-distribution calculator, with z = 74.6, with a two-tailed test, as we are testing if the proportion is different of a value, the p-value is of 0.

Since the p-value of the test is less than 0.01, there is enough evidence to conclude that survival rates are different for day and night.

The histogram displays different numbers of days that customers rented a car. Which interval represents the most common number o
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the histogram is not attached.

However, the solution to your question is to select the interval with the highest frequency

Take for instance, after getting readings from the histogram, yiu have:

1 - 10: 8

11 - 20: 5

21 - 30: 11

31 - 40: 2

And so on.......

Interval 11 - 20 will represent the required interval because it has the highest frequency.

The path of water from a hose on a fire tugboat can be approximated by the equation y=-0.0055x^2 +1.15x + 5, where y is the heig
Komok [63]

Answer:

The water is 208.22ft from the tug boat

Step-by-step explanation:

The governing equation is y=-0.0055x^2 +1.15x + 5

y is the height above the ocean

x is the distance from the tugboat

if y= 6ft, the equation will now become

6=-0.0055x^2 +1.15x + 5

we can arrange this properly to form a quadratic equation by grouping like terms.

-0.0055x^2 +1.15x -1=0

solving quadratically we have two values of x as  208.22ft and 0.873 ft.

We can take a more realistic value as a solution to our problems:

208.22ft
