In your new role as a data analyst for a large hospital chain, the CEO has
asked you to explore patient outcomes at a newly built hospital (“Mountain

in seeing whether patients who are seen for heart attacks are being
readmitted to the hospital more often in the new facility. You looked at data
from a random sample of visits to the two hospitals during the last year.
