Prob-7 Hospital workers who are routinely involved administrative radioactive tracer to patients are subject to a radiation exposure emanating from skin of the patient. In an experiment to asses the amount of this, radiation levels were measured at a distance of 50 cm from n=28 patients who had been injected with a radioactive tracer, and a sample mean of 5.145 and sample std. s= 0.7524 are obtained.
