A survey found that​ women's heights are normally distributed with mean 63.3 in. and standard deviation of 3.7 in. The survey also found that​ men's heights are normally distributed with a mean 68.6 in. and standard deviation 3.3 in. Most of the live characters employed at an amusement park have height requirements of a minimum of 55 in. and a maximum of 62 in. Complete parts​ (a) and​ (b) below.

a. Find the percentage of men meeting the height requirement. What does the result suggest about the genders of the people who are employed as characters at the amusement​ park?

The percentage of men who meet the height requirement is = %.

​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)

A 20 month old child recently fell seven stories from a balcony of the Pompano Beach, Florida Quality Inn. The child survived the fall. The plaintiff charged that the corroded railing gave way on the balcony. Experts have said that salty sea air can rapidly eat through the metal railings that line thousands of hotel balconies in South Florida beachfront hotels. Warnings had been placed in all of the guestrooms advising people to stay away from the railings and to supervise their children.

Basis of action of plaintiff against the hotel.

a. What are the specific legal basis for seeking damages?

When you decide to go and have a dinner with your friends in a world class hotel such as the Langham hotel or Coronado Beach, perhaps you would be horrified by the high price you would have to pay for a bottle of soft drink such as Coca Cola or Pepsi Cola or wine or even bottled water. Perhaps you begin to ponder why the same commodity that you can get at a supermarket at one tenth the hotel price is going for such an astronomical price at the hotel.Of course, such facilities will have a warning such "you are not allowed to bring in your own food or drinks" posted at appropriate places in the facility for the attention of customers.In another scenario, you enter a designer shop to buy clothes with a designer label for a friend on their birthday or on Valentine day and you reckon the clothes are so much expensive compared to similar own brand clothes from a clothing or chain store, even though they may cost a similar amount to produce.

Questions

Using your knowledge in basic economics, especially of the concept of demand and supply, attributes of a competitive market and price elasticity of demand, briefly discuss the following

A. Why may a hotel charge such very high prices for wine, soft drinks or even bottled water and yet quite reasonable prices for food and still get away with such high prices?

B. Why are designer shops able to price their clothes so very expensive and yet still get clients even though similar clothes that are available in a supermarket chain shops cost pretty much less?

a)In order to determine the average price of hotel rooms in Atlanta. Using a 0.1 level of significance, we would like to test whether or not the average room price is significantly different from $110. The population standard deviation is known to be $16. A sample of 64 hotels was selected. The p-value associated with the test statistic (z) is calculated and it is 0.03. We conclude that the average price of hotel rooms in Atlanta is NOT significantly different from $110. (Enter 1 if the conclusion is correct. Enter 0 if the conclusion is wrong.)

b)In order to determine the average price of hotel rooms in Atlanta. Using a 0.1 level of significance, we would like to test whether or not the average room price is significantly different from $110. The population standard deviation is known to be $16. A sample of 64 hotels was selected. The test statistic (z) is calculated and it is -1.45. We conclude that the average price of hotel rooms in Atlanta is NOT significantly different from $110. (Enter 1 if the conclusion is correct. Enter 0 if the conclusion is wrong.)

C)A sample of 28 account balances of a credit company was taken to test whether the mean of all account balances is significantly greater than $1,150. Using the sample standard deviation, the test statistic (t) was calculated to be $1.93. We use a 0.05 level of significance. Assume the population of account balances is normally distributed and the population standard deviation is unknown to us.We conclude that the mean of all account balances is significantly greater than $1,150. (Enter 1 if the conclusion is correct. Enter 0 if the conclusion is wrong.)
