Graph this bene t formula and calculate the bene ts and replacement rates for workers who earned $100, $500, and $2000 in the last week of working.

A random sample of 25 inpatients in a hospital had a mean healthcare expenditure of $2000 and standard deviation of $300.

A random sample of 25 inpatients in a hospital had a mean healthcare expenditure of $2000 and standard deviation of $300. Use these values to test the following hypotheses at α = 0.01:

(a) whether or not the mean healthcare expenditure among all inpatients in the hospital is less than $2300.

(b) whether or not the mean healthcare expenditure among all inpatients in the hospital is different from $2100.
