Answer:

B. no, it is not low enough

A. no, it is not low enough

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Air-USA has a policy of booking as many as 24 persons on an airplane that can seat only 22.

Prob for  a random person booked arrive for flight = 0.86

No of persons who books and arrive for flight, X is binomial, since there are two outcomes and each person is independent of the other

The probability that if Air-USA books 24 persons, not enough seats will be available

= P(X=23)+P(x=24)

= 0.1315

B. no, it is not low enough

-------------------------------

The prob we got is >10% also

A. no, it is not low enough

What is the area of the polygon ABCDE?
Setler [38]
The answer is 73.5

To make it a lot easier split the shapes into a rectangle and triangle.
The rectangle is a tad easier because the measurements are given here.

5 x 12 = 60 (rectangle area)

To find the triangle find the base then height. The base is 3cm and the height is 9cm (shown above)

9 x 3 = 27
Divide that by 2 because it's a triangle and you get 13.5.

Add those two numbers and voila you have your answer of 73.5.

A group of 12 people want to go to a concert. They can travel in a small car that takes one driver and one passenger and two car
trapecia [35]

Answer: There are 60 ways that they can travel to the concert.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of people want to go to a concert = 12

Number of cars = 3

Number of drivers in the group = 5

So, using the "Fundamental theorem of counting":

We get that

5\times 4\times 3\\\\=60

Hence, there are 60 ways that they can travel to the concert.
