\fRecent research into the cost of various medical procedures has shown the impact of certain complications encountered in surgery on the total cost of a patient's stay in the hospital. The researchers used regression analysis and found the following results: Total cost for patient = Constant, plus a 3: Length of stay [measured in days}, plus b x Presence of one or more complications (=1 if true, 0 if false), plus C x Use of a laparoscope {=1 iftrue, 0 if false} where a, b, c are coefcients of the regression model. The laparoscope is an instrument somewhat like a miniature telescope with a beroptic system that brings light into the abdomen. It is about as big around as a fountain pen and twice as long. The research, based on 71 patients, showed the following regression results: Rsquared: 51% Co nsta nt te rm: $3,929 Coefcients and tvalues for independent variables: Length of Stay Complications Lapar'oscope Coefficient $ Tr'SB $ 1, 995 5 94-9 tvalue 9.48 5.84 2.24- Required: '1. What is the estimated cost for a patient whose surgery has complications and who stays in the hospital 5 days, and whose surgery requires a laparoscope? _:|
