- Suppose you are the manager of two beachfront hotels : The Palms and Golden Sands. You'd like to know if there is a difference in guest satisfaction between the two hotels. To investigate this, you conduct a survey and ask guests upon departure if they are likely to return to the hotel in the future. For The Palms, 163 out of 227 guests who were surveyed responded " yes ". For Golden Sands, 154 out of 262 guests responded "yes ". Answer the following questions. Round any numbers in your final answers to 2 decimals. 1) Calculate a 95 % confidence interval for the difference in satisfaction rates between The Palms and Golden Sands (Show work) 2) Use the critical value approach to test, at a 1% significance level, whether or not the guest satisfaction rates are different between the two hotels. What do you conclude ? (In your answer, show the steps involved with testing) 3) What is the p-value of your test in part 2?Matt E. Matic was applying for a job.
