The average cost of a hotel room in Chicago is claimed to be $188 per night. A travel agent thinks it is lower now. A random sample of 16 hotels resulted in a sample mean of $177.50 and a sample standard deviation of $25.40. What is the p-value corresponding to the test statistic from the previous question? Enter your answer as a percentage, rounded to 2 decimal places.

The average cost of a hotel room in Chicago is said to be $ 170 per night. To determine if this is true, a random sample of 25 hotels is taken and resulted in a sample mean of $ 174 and an S of $ 16.1 Test the appropriate hypotheses at a = 0.05. (Assume the population distribution is normal).

According to a research institution, the average hotel price in a certain year was $91.99. Assume the population standard deviation is $23.00 and that a random sample of 50 hotels was selected. Complete parts a through d below. a. Calculate the standard error of the mean. σ_x = $ (Round to two decimal places as needed.) b. What is the probability that the sample mean will be less than $93? P (x̄ < $93) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.) c. What is the probability that the sample mean will be more than $97? P (x̄ > $97) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.) d. What is the probability that the sample mean will be between $91 and $92? P ($91 ≤ x̄ ≤ $92) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

A major city in the United States has a large number of hotels. During peak travel times throughout the year, these hotels use a higher price for their rooms. A travel agent is interested in finding the difference of the average cost of a hotel room from the peak season to the off season. He takes a random sample of room prices during both times of the year. Assume the data is normally distributed. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean difference in price between the peak season and the off season. Season Cost Standard Deviation Sample Size Peak Season $225 $45 42 Off Season $165 $65 38
