Question

Acute Postoperative Days. Several neurosurgeons wanted to determine whether a dynamic system (Z-plate) reduced the number of acute postoperative days in the hospital relative to a static system (ALPS plate). R. Jacobowitz, Ph.D., an Arizona State University professor, along with G. Vishteh, M.D., and other neurosurgeons obtained the following data on the number of acute postoperative days in the hospital using the dynamic and static systems.

Short answer

The required dot plot of dynamic and static

For static

Step-by-step solution

Given Information

Explanation

In a dot plot, a dot is placed above the relevant number on the number line for each piece of data.

Create a number line to plot a dot plot.

A dot is placed above the matching number on the number line for dynamic.

A dot is placed above the relevant number on the number line in the case of static.
