Answer:
30 flights are expected to be late.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
A Department of Transportation report about air travel found that nationwide, 76% of all flights are on time.
That means 100-76% = 24% of all flights are not on time.
125 randomly selected flights.
We need to find flights would you expect to be late.
Flight expect to be late E(x) = nq
Here n is 125 and the probability of late is 24 or q = 0.24
Thus substitute the respective values in the above formula.
Flight expect to be late E(x) = 125 × 0.24 = 30
Hence, the 30 flights are expected to be late.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It's too bad about this problem. It's a fair game if you get paid the same amount that you have to pay if you lose.
You win 2 ways
- H - H
- T - T
- Probability 1/2
You lose 2 ways.
- H - T
- T - H
- Probability 1/2
Expectation
E = 1/2 * 3 - 1/2 * 4
E = 1.5 - 2
E = -0.5
Which means that you should expect to lose 0.5 dollars every time you play this dreadful game.
