$x=2y+1$

what is $10y-5x$ ?

all you gotta do is substitute the value of $x$ in the equation:

$x=2y+1\\10y-5(2y+1)$

now solve for $y$ :

$10y-5(2y+1)\\10y-10y-5=-5$

so the value of $10y-5x =$ $\boxed{-5}$

The problem of matching aircraft to passenger demand on each flight leg is called the flight assignment problem in the airline i

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the demand for the 6 p.m. flight from Toledo Express Airport to Chicago's O'Hare Airport on Cheapfare Airlines is normally distributed with a mean of 132 passengers and a standard deviation of 42

Let X be the no of passengers who report

X is N(132, 42)

Or Z is $\frac{x-132}{42}$

a) Suppose a Boeing 757 with a capacity of 183 passengers is assigned to this flight.

the probability that the demand will exceed the capacity of this airplane

= $P(X>183) = P(Z>1.21) =$

$=0.5-0.3869\\=0.1131$

b) the probability that the demand for this flight will be at least 80 passengers but no more than 200 passengers

= $P(80\leq x\leq 200)\\= P(-1.23\leq z\leq 1.62)\\$

=0.4474+0.3907

=0.8381

c) the probability that the demand for this flight will be less than 100 passengers

$=P(x$

d) If Cheapfare Airlines wants to limit the probability that this flight is overbooked to 3%, how much capacity should the airplane that is used for this flight have? passengers

= $P(Z>c)=0.03\\c=1.88\\X=132+1.88(42)\\=210.96$

e) 79th percentile of this distribution

= $132+0.81(42)\\= 166.02$
