Answer:

They can treat 480 patients if they have 120 nurses?

Step-by-step explanation:

The firt part of the problem gives no relevant information, because we are not asked of how many deaths the particular ratio policy produces,

A ratio is a proportion between two quantities. 1: 4 nurse patient indicate a nurse can treat 4 patients. There fore, using  arule of three we have

1 nurse/ 4 patients * x patients / 120 nurses

x patients = 120 * 4 = 480 patients.

Answer:

The correct answer is option (C)-0.245 = 2.160(0.205)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The slope = - 0.245

The size sample = n = 15

The standard error = 0.205

The confidence level = 95

The Significance level= α = (100- 95)% = 0.05

Now,

The freedom of degree = n-2 = 15 -2= 13

Thus,

the critical value = t* = 2.16

By applying Excel = [TINV (0.05, 13)]

The Margin of error is = t* (standard error)

=2.16 *0.205

= 0.4428
