question 67

Short Answer

Use the data below to calculate the length of stay for each patient. Assume that the dates are in the same year and that it is not a leap year.
$\begin{array}{lcc}&\underline { \text { Admitted}}&\underline { \text { Discharged}}\\\text { Patient A } & \text { 25-May } & \text { 25-May } \\\text { Patient B } & \text { 15-May } & \text {16- May } \\\text { Patient C } & \text { 11-May } & \text { 25-May } \\\text { Patient D } & \text { 27-May } & \text { 3-Jun } \\\text { PatientE } & \text { 31-May } & \text { 2-Jun } \\\text { PatientF } & \text { 29-May } & \text { 5-Jul } \\\text { Patient G } & \text { 26-Dec } & \text { 10-Jan } \\\text { Patient } \mathrm{H} & \text { 22-Dec } &\text { 7-Mar}\end{array}$

Definitions:

Null Hypothesis

The assumption in statistics that indicates no effect or no difference is expected in the test.

Critical Values

Points on the scale of the test statistic beyond which we reject the null hypothesis, depending on the chosen significance level.

F-ratio

A statistic used in ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) that compares the variation between group means to the variation within groups, evaluating whether group means are significantly different.

Critical Value

A threshold in hypothesis testing that defines the boundary between accepting or rejecting the null hypothesis, determined by the chosen significance level.
