What is the probability a person admitted to the hospital is paid a malpractice claim (to decimals)
Liula [17]

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

Nick has $5, $20, and $100 bills that total 17 bills. He exchanges all his $5 bills for $1 bills, then all his $20 bills for $5
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Key to this question is assume that each exchange preserves the total dollar amount of Nick’s money.

If He exchanges all his $5 bills for $1 bills, it means that a $5 bill will result in 5 $1 bills as such, if he had x number of $5 bill, after the exchange, he would have 5x $1 bills.

then all his $20 bills for $5 bills, it means that for each $20 bill, he gets 4 $5 bills which means that if he had y number of $5 bills, after the exchange, he would have 4y $5 bills.

and finally all his $100 bills for $20 bills, then he must have received 5 $20 bills for each $100 such that if he had z number of $100 bills before the exchange, he would have 5z number of $20 bills after the exchange. Given that originally he had 17 bills and later 77 bills then

x + y + z  = 17

5x + 4y + 5z = 77

Multiplying the first equation by 5,

5x + 5y + 5z = 85

5x + 4y + 5z = 77

subtract 2 from 1

y = 8
