Conde Nast Traveler publishes a Gold List of the top hotels all over the world. The Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs contains 700 rooms and is on the 2004 Gold List (Conde Nast Traveler, January 2004). Suppose Broadmoor's marketing group forecasts a demand of 670 rooms for the coming weekend. Assume that demand for the upcoming weekend is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 30. a. What is the probability all the hotel's rooms will be rented (to 4 decimals)?

(a) The probability that all the hotel's rooms will be rented is 0.1587.

(b) The probability that 50 or more rooms will not be rented is 0.2514.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs contains 700 rooms and is on the 2004 Gold List.

Suppose Broadmoor's marketing group forecasts a mean demand of 670 rooms for the coming weekend. Assume that demand for the upcoming weekend is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 30.

Let X = demand for rooms in the hotel

So, X ~ Normal( $\mu=670,\sigma^{2} =30^{2}$ )

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = mean demand for the rooms = 670

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 30

(a) The probability that all the hotel's rooms will be rented means that the demand is at least 700 = P(X $\geq$ 700)

P(X $\geq$ 700) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ $\geq$ $\frac{700-670}{30}$ ) = P(Z $\geq$ 1) = 1 - P(Z < 1)

= 1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1 in the z table which has an area of 0.8413.

(b) The probability that 50 or more rooms will not be rented is given by = P(X $\leq$ 650)

P(X $\leq$ 650) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ $\leq$ $\frac{650-670}{30}$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ -0.67) = 1 - P(Z < 0.67)

= 1 - 0.7486 = 0.2514

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.67 in the z table which has an area of 0.7486.

For this option, you will work individually. the pythagorean theorem can be used in many real-world scenarios. part 1 write your own real-world scenario where the pythagorean theorem can be applied to find a missing piece. you may choose to write a problem that is two- or three-dimensional in nature. be sure that you will be able to draw a diagram of your scenario. write out your problem and submit it for part 1. be sure to end your scenario with a question. part 2 draw a diagram of the scenario you created in part 1. you may draw by hand and scan and upload your drawing or create a computer-generated drawing for submission. be sure to label all parts and dimensions of the drawing. part 3 solve the question that you posed in part 1. show all of your steps in answering the question. for this option, you will need to submit all three parts for full credit—your real-world problem and question, the diagram that you created, and your work solving the problem, showing all steps. * note that your instructor is looking for your own original idea. while it is acceptable to use the internet for research and inspiration, academic integrity policies apply.
