- A clinical study is designed to assess the average length of hospital stay of patients who underwent surgery. A preliminary study of a random sample of 70 surgery patients’ records showed that the standard deviation of the lengths of stay of all surgery patients is 7.5 days. How large should a sample to estimate the desired mean to within 1 day at 95% confidence? Round your answer to the whole number.arrow_forwardIn the experiment a sample of subjects is drawn of people who have an elbow surgery. Each of the people included in the sample was interviewed about their health status and measurements were taken before and after surgery. Are the measurements before and after the operation independent or dependent samples?arrow_forwardCan u make a room for mearrow_forward

Like a calculation mistake and high light what the mistake is. Thanks so much.arrow_forwardiid 1. The CLT provides an approximate sampling distribution for the arithmetic average Ỹ of a random sample Y₁, . . ., Yn f(y). The parameters of the approximate sampling distribution depend on the mean and variance of the underlying random variables (i.e., the population mean and variance). The approximation can be written to emphasize this, using the expec- tation and variance of one of the random variables in the sample instead of the parameters μ, 02: YNEY, · (1 (EY,, varyi n For the following population distributions f, write the approximate distribution of the sample mean. (a) Exponential with rate ẞ: f(y) = ß exp{−ßy} 1 (b) Chi-square with degrees of freedom: f(y) = ( 4 ) 2 y = exp { — ½/ } г( (c) Poisson with rate λ: P(Y = y) = exp(-\} > y! y²arrow_forward
- 2. Let Y₁,……., Y be a random sample with common mean μ and common variance σ². Use the CLT to write an expression approximating the CDF P(Ỹ ≤ x) in terms of µ, σ² and n, and the standard normal CDF Fz(·).arrow_forward3. We'd like to know the first time when the population reaches 7000 people. First, graph the function from part (a) on your calculator or Desmos. In the same window, graph the line y = 7000. Notice that you will need to adjust your window so that you can see values as big as 7000! Investigate the intersection of the two graphs. (This video shows you how to find the intersection on your calculator, or in Desmos just hover the cursor over the point.) At what value t> 0 does the line intersect with your exponential function? Round your answer to two decimal places. (You don't need to show work for this part.)
