A hospital reduces its average wait time from 45 minutes to 36 minutes. What is the percentage reduction?

A department's budget is $500,000. If 60% is allocated to staff, 25% to supplies, and the rest to equipment, how much goes to equipment?
Answer: $75,000

Test sensitivity = 90%, specificity = 85%, prevalence = 10% in a population of 1,000. How many true positives are expected?
Answer: 90
True positives = sensitivity × actual positives = 90% × (10% × 1000) = 0.9 × 100 = 90.
