The number of daily emergency room visits at a hospital is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 86 and a standard deviation of 14. To ensure that the emergency room is adequately staffed, the hospital administration requires that the emergency room can accommodate all patients with a probability of at least 90%. How many patients (rounded to the closest integer) should the emergency room be prepared to see each day to make sure they meet this staffing requirement?
