Answer:

the probability that there will be a seat available for every passenger who shows up is 0.74

Step-by-step explanation:

if the probability of choosing a passenger that will not show up is 5% , then the probability of choosing a passenger that will show up is 95%.

Denoting event X= x passengers will show up from the total of 52 that purchased the ticket

Then P(X) follows a binomial probability distribution, since each passenger is independent from others. Thus

P(X) = n!/((n-x)!*x!)*p^x*(1-p)^(n-x)

where

n= total number of passengers hat purchased the ticket= 52

p= probability of choosing a passenger that will show up

x = number of passengers that will show up

therefore the probability that the number does not exceed the limit of 50 passengers is:

P(X≤50)=  ∑P(X=i)  from i=0 to i=50   =F(50)

where F(x) is the cumulative binomial probability distribution, then from tables:

P(X≤50)= F(50) = 0.74

therefore the probability that there will be a seat available for every passenger who shows up is 0.74

Answer:

12.566

Step-by-step explanation:

A = ∫1/2(r)^2dtheta from a - b = 0 to 2π

∫1/2(sin^2theta-4sintheta+4)dtheta

[9/4theta+2costheta-1/8sin2theta] from 0 to 2π…

when you solve this you get 14.137 without taking out the cos(2theta+3)

Naily [24]

Answer:

3.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a corcle is sexpressed as';

A = πr²

π = A/r²

π = 78.54/5²

π = 78.54/25

π = 3.1416

When the area is divided by radius the required constant is 3.14
