Hotel occupancy is an often-reported measure of visitor volume and visitor activity (Orlando Sentinel, May 19, 2018). Hotel occupancy data for February in two consecutive years are as follows. Ho: P1 P2 less than or equal to 0 Ha P1 P2 greater than 0 b. What is the estimated proportion of hotel rooms occupied each year (to 2 decimals)? 1,435 1,750 1,422 1,800 a. Formulate the hypothesis test that can be used to determine whether there has been an increase in the proportion of rooms occupied over the one-year period. Let P1 = population proportion of rooms occupied for current year P2 = population proportion of rooms occupied for previous year Current year Previous Year .82 .05 p-value = .7997 Using a 0.05 level of significance, what is your conclusion? .014 c.

- Exercise 2. A study is designed to test whether there is a difference in mean daily calcium intake in adults with normal bone density and adults with osteoporosis. Adults 60 years of age with normal bone density and osteoporosis are selected at random from hospital records and invited to participate in the study. Each participant's daily calcium intake (mg) is measured based on reported food intake and supplements. The data are shown below. Normal Bone Density: 1200 1000 980 900 750 800 Osteoporosis: 890 650 1100 900 400 350 480 Do these data give statistical evidence of differences in mean calcium intake across the two groups? That is, do these data give statistical evidence that the process means, say mean(Y:RE,) and mean(Y:RE2) are different? Here, Y = daily calcium intake (mg), RE, = "Nature generates a 60-year-old with normal bone density" and RE2 ="Nature generates a 60-year-old with osteoporosis."

- Calcium is essential to tree growth because it promotes the formation of wood and maintains cell walls. In 1990, the concentration of calcium in precipitation in a certain area was 0.12 milligrams per liter (mg/L). A random sample of 10 precipitation dates in 2007 results in the following data table.
