Question

a health organization collects data on hospitals in a large metropolitan area. the scatterplot shows the relationship between two variables the organization collected: the number of beds each hospital has available and the average number of days a patient stays in the hospital (mean length of stay). which hospital represented in the scatterplot would be considered a high leverage point? the hospital with 35 beds the hospital with 140 beds the hospital with 200 beds the hospital with 310 beds hospitals

Explanation:

A high - leverage point is a data point with an extreme \(x\) - value (in this case, the number of beds). The \(x\) - axis represents the number of beds. The hospital with 310 beds has the most extreme \(x\) - value compared to the other options (35, 140, 200).

Answer:

the hospital with 310 beds
