An airline knows that 5 percent of the people making reservations on a certain flight will not show up. Consequently, their poli
kenny6666 [7]

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

Which inequality represents the value of x that ensures triangle abc exists?
olasank [31]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to triangle inequality theorem, a triangle exists if the sum of two sides is greater that third side.

Apply this theorem on each combination.

Case I: (2x+4)+6x>18

8x+4>18

8x>14

x>\dfrac{14}{8}

x>\dfrac{7}{4}      ...(1)

Case II: (2x+4)+18>6x

2x+22>6x

22>4x

\dfrac{22}{4}>x

\dfrac{11}{2}>x     ...(2)

Case III: 6x+18>2x+4

6x-2x>4-18

4x>-14

x>-\dfrac{14}{4}

x>-\dfrac{7}{2}     ...(3)

On combining (1), (2) and (3), we get

\dfrac{7}{4}

Therefore, the correct option is A.

-12x + 18y = 21<br>(6x -9 = -9​
Leokris [45]

Answer:

x = 0 , y = 7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

6 x - 9 = -9

In the second equation, look to solve for x:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

6 x - 9 = -9

Add 9 to both sides:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

6 x = 0

Divide both sides by 6:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into the first equation:

{18 y = 21

x = 0

In the first equation, look to solve for y:

{18 y = 21

x = 0

Divide both sides by 18:

{y = 7/6

x = 0

Collect results in alphabetical order:

Answer: {x = 0 , y = 7/6
