Question: A suburban hotel derives its gross income from its hotel and restaurant operations. The owners are interested in the relationship between the number of rooms occupied on a nightly basis and the revenue per day in the restaurant. Below is a sample of 25 days (Monday through Thursday) from last year showing the restaurant income and number of rooms occupied.
Use a statistical software package to answer the following questions.
- Does the breakfast revenue seem to increase as the number of occupied rooms increases? Draw a scatter diagram to support your conclusion.
- Determine the coefficient of correlation between the two variables. Interpret the value.
- Is it reasonable to conclude that there is a positive relationship between revenue and occupied rooms? Use the .10 significance level.
- What percent of the variation in revenue in the restaurant is accounted for by the number of rooms occupied?
