Answer:
- The probability that overbooking occurs means that all 8 non-regular customers arrived for the flight. Each of them has a 56% probability of arriving and they arrive independently so we get that
P(8 arrive) = (0.56)^8 = 0.00967
- Let's do part c before part b. For this, we want an exact booking, which means that exactly 7 of the 8 non-regular customers arrive for the flight. Suppose we align these 8 people in a row. Take the scenario that the 1st person didn't arrive and the remaining 7 did. That odds of that happening would be (1-.56)*(.56)^7.
Now take the scenario that the second person didn't arrive and the remaining 7 did. The odds would be
(0.56)(1-0.56)(0.56)^6 = (1-.56)*(.56)^7. You can run through every scenario that way and see that each time the odds are the same. There are a total of 8 different scenarios since we can choose 1 person (the non-arriver) from 8 people in eight different ways (combination).
So the overall probability of an exact booking would be [(1-.56)*(.56)^7] * 8 = 0.06079
- The probability that the flight has one or more empty seats is the same as the probability that the flight is NOT exactly booked NOR is it overbooked. Formally,
P(at least 1 empty seat) = 1 - P(-1 or 0 empty seats)
= 1 - P(overbooked) - P(exactly booked)
= 1 - 0.00967 - 0.06079
= 0.9295.
Note that, the chance of being both overbooked and exactly booked is zero, so we don't have to worry about that.
Hope that helps!
Have a great day :P
The answer would be 8! This is because there were already five and then Jason got in, so six, and then two friends got in as well, so six plus two is eight!
You'll need to convert both speeds into yards per minute.
12 mph = 12 mph 1760 yd 60 min
---------- * ------------ * ----------
1 mile 1 hr
Note that "miles" cancels. So does "hours." Finish this work.
Then convert 4.4 ft/sec into yards per minute.
Then, finally, compare your two rates via subtraction of the smaller from the larger.
SA=2(lw+wh+lh) This is the formula for finding the surface area of a rectangular prism, where SA is surface area, l is length, w is width, and h is height.
208=2(lw+wh+lh)
104=lw+wh+lh Here, I divided both sides by 2 to get ride of the 2.
Now, I used prime factorization to find out all the prime factors of 104, which are 2, 2, 2, and 13. Since rectangular prisms only have 3 dimensions, I needed to combine two of the prime factors. In this case, I can either combine 2 of the 2s to get 2, 4, and 13 or I can combine 13 with one of the 2s to get 26, 2, and 2.
If my dimensions were 2, 4, and 13...
my surface area would be 172 sq cm.
If my dimensions were 2, 2, and 26...
my surface area would be 208 sq cm.
Hence, the width of the rectangular prism when the surface area is 208 square centimeters can be either 2 or 26.
