According to an​ airline, flights on a certain route are on time 80 ​% of the time. suppose 10 flights are randomly selected and

the number of​ on-time flights is recorded. ​(a) explain why this is a binomial experiment. ​(b) find and interpret the probability that exactly 7 flights are on time. ​(c) find and interpret the probability that fewer than 7 flights are on time. ​(d) find and interpret the probability that at least 7 flights are on time. ​(e) find and interpret the probability that between 5 and 7 ​flights, inclusive, are on time.

<span>(a) This is a binomial experiment since there are only two possible results for each data point: a flight is either on time (p = 80% = 0.8) or late (q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2).
​(b) Using the formula:</span><span>
P(r out of n) = (nCr)(p^r)(q^(n-r)), where n = 10 flights, r = the number of flights that arrive on time:
P(7/10) = (10C7)(0.8)^7 (0.2)^(10 - 7) = 0.2013
Therefore, there is a 0.2013 chance that exactly 7 of 10 flights will arrive on time.
​(c) Fewer than 7 flights are on time means that we must add up the probabilities for P(0/10) up to P(6/10).
Following the same formula (this can be done using a summation on a calculator, or using Excel, to make things faster):
P(0/10) + P(1/10) + ... + P(6/10) = 0.1209
This means that there is a 0.1209 chance that less than 7 flights will be on time.
​(d) The probability that at least 7 flights are on time is the exact opposite of part (c), where less than 7 flights are on time. So instead of calculating each formula from scratch, we can simply subtract the answer in part (c) from 1.
1 - 0.1209 = 0.8791.
So there is a 0.8791 chance that at least 7 flights arrive on time.
(e) For this, we must add up P(5/10) + P(6/10) + P(7/10), which gives us
0.0264 + 0.0881 + 0.2013 = 0.3158, so the probability that between 5 to 7 flights arrive on time is 0.3158.

Jenny owns a salon. She had 150 customers at the end of the third quarter, 151
Alika [10]

Answer:

The answer is 96%

Step-by-step solution:

I just took the test and the way my test is set up, it doesn't show you the answer, you just have the ability to do it again and again with no limit. I saw that most people got all the other questions right but the salon one. And I did too before but after doing it over and over again I finally understood. So the question is Customer Retention = (# Customers at End of time Period less New Customers)/Customers at beginning of time Period

Multiply the result by 100 to convert to percentage

So pretty much what the question is saying is to subtract the numbers at End of time Period by the new costumers then divide that by the costumers at beginning of time Period then multiply the solution by 100 for the percentage. Most people probably dismissed the word less but it's indeed important and it would've been simpler if they just put a subtract sign but hey we got the answer anyway.
