Design utilization is 50%.
b. Design utilization is 75%.
c. Effective utilization is 66%.
d. Design utilization is 66%.
e. Effect utilization is 44%

Answer 1

Answer:

d. Design utilization is 66%.

Explanation:

If the clinic gave flu shots to 330 seniors over ten hours, that's an average of 33 seniors per hour, comparing to the design capacity and effective capicity gives:

$DesignPerc = \frac{33}{50} = 0.66\\ EffectivePerc= \frac{33}{44} = 0.75$

Therefore, Design utilization is 66% and Effective utilization is 75% so the answer is D.
