The average daily rate of a hotel in Canada as of August 2018 was $182.65. Assume the average daily rate follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of $25.70.

Standard Normal Distribution Table

a. What is the probability that the average daily rate of a Canadian hotel will be:

(i) less than $175
P(X < 175)=P(X < 175)=

(ii) more than $200
P(X > 200)=P(X > 200)=

(iii) Between $150 and $190
P(150 < X < 190)=P(150 < X < 190)=

b. Determine the average daily rates that separate the:

(i) top 4% of average daily rates from the rest of the daily rates or from the bottom 96% of average daily rates
x=x=

(ii) bottom 15% of average daily rates from the rest of the daily rates
x=x=

(iii) middle 65% of average daily rates from the rest of the daily rates
