We considered a town with two hospitals. In the large hospital about 45 babies are born each day, and in the smaller hospital about 15 babies are born each day. We were interested in guessing which hospital would have on the average the largest number of days with the property that more than 60 percent of the children born on that day are boys. The probability of a boy being born is 0.5
For each hospital find the expected number of days in a year that have the property that more than 60 percent of the children born on that day were boys.

There are two hospitals. the large hospital has 45 births per day while a smaller hospital has 15 births per day. these hospitals record the days in which more than 60% of the babies are male. Which hospital will have more days recorded of more than 60% boys? Calculate two separate binomial probability distributions for comparison.

Suppose babies born in a large hospital have a mean weight of 3366 grams, and a variance of 244,036. If 118 babies are sampled at random from the hospital, what is the probability that the mean weight of the sample babies would differ from the population mean by more than 45 grams? Round your answer to four decimal places.

(20 points) Suppose there are two hospitals in town, Adam Hospital and Brown Hospital. Both hospitals face similar demand and cost function. Thus, using the terminology of the Newhouse model, both hospitals have a similar production possibility curve. However, utility functions differ between these two hospitals. Adam hospital focuses on increasing access to health care in the community and hence places a higher value on providing a high quantity of hospital care. By contrast, the boss of Brown hospital focuses...

In Children's Hospital in Seattle there are on average 60 births per week. Mothers and babies stay, on average, two days before they leave the hospital. In Swedish hospital (also in Seattle), the average number of births per week is 210. Mothers and children stay in the hospital two days on average. a. How many new mothers are staying in Children's Hospital? b. How many new mothers are staying in Swedish Hospital? c. The directors of the two hospitals are...

4. At a local hospital, babies are born at an average rate of four births per night (consider "night" to be an 8 hour period from 10pm to 6am). Assume that the time that elapsed from one birth to the next has the exponential distribution. Take note that we are concerned only with the rate at which babies are born, and we are ignoring the time spent in labor. We must also assume that the times spent between births are...

2-61 Hospital Patient Mix Study Appendix 2A. Hospitals measure their volume in terms of patient-days. We calculate patient- days by multiplying the number of patients by the number of days that the patients are hospitalized. Suppose a large hospital has fixed costs of $54 million per year and variable costs of $600 per patient- day. Daily revenues vary among classes of patients. For simplicity, assume that there are two classes: (1) self-pay patients (S) who pay an average of $1,000...
