Q: 12 Thank you

The following data lists the number of correct and wrong dosage amounts calculated by 30 physicians. In a research experiment, a group of 15 physicians was given bottles of epinephrine labeled with a concentration of "1 milligram in 1 milliliter solution, " and another group of 15 physicians was given bottles labeled with a ratio of "1 milliliter of a 1: 1000 solution." If one of the physicians is randomly selected, find the probability of getting one who made a correct dosage calculation or was given the bottle with a concentration label. P(physician made a correct dosage calculation or was given the bottle with a concentration label) = (Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)

Explanation / Answer

P(Getting one who made a correct dosage calculation(CDC) or was given the bottle with a concentration label(CL))

= P(DC) + P(CL) - P(DC and CL)[ since this value would already have been counted in each probability)

= 14/30 + 15/30 - 10/30

= 19/30

= 0.633

Correct Dosage calculation (CDC) Wrong Dosage Calculation Total Concentration Label (CL) 10 5 15 Ratio Label 4 11 15 Total 14 16 30
