1. What was the average length of stay?

-average of the length of stay
mean=(157)/32 =4.9
-modal =3 and 4 since they are repeated 6 times
-0 1 2222 333333 444444 5555 666 777 88 10 12 13
-the median is 4

2. What was the average charge?

-variance =sam (X'-x)/n-1
=>from the calculator we have it as =2.32
-the standard deviation =sqrt(variance)
=sqrt(2.32)
=1.525

-mean=428468/32 =13389.625
-modal =$13350 repeated twice
-median=$17025
-variance =sam (X'-x)/(n-1)
=33.62
-then we know that standard deviation=sqrt (variance)
sqrt(33.62)
=5.797

3. What was the average age?

-the average age=1946.7/32 =60.83
4. What was the average age of patients discharged to skilled nursing facilities?

-the average send to skilled nursing facility=689.3/9 =76.599

5. What was the average age of patients discharged home?

-average discharged home=420.9/9=46.76
