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

ndustry. Suppose 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. Round probabilities in parts (a) through (c) to four decimal places.
a) Suppose a Boeing 757 with a capacity of 183 passengers is assigned to this flight. What is the probability that the demand will exceed the capacity of this airplane?

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

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

Round answers in parts (d) and (e) to the nearest whole number.

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

e) What is the 79th percentile of this distribution?

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

The angles of a triangle are 80º, 2x + 2º, and 5xº. What is the value of x?
Gekata [30.6K]
Since the sum of the angles of a triangle = 180°

Then  <span>80º + (2x + 2)º + 5xº  = 180</span>°
                          82° + (7x)° = 180°
                                    (7x)° = 180° - 82°
                                        x   =  98° ÷ 7
                                    ∴  x   = 14

If this angle is 1/6 of a rotation about a circle, then<br> its measure is
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

60 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

A full rotation is 360 degrees.

So 1/6 is 360 * 1/6 =  60 degrees.

Help please :) about to post more too
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Lets say test tubes = t, and beakers = b

1 pack of (t) is $4 less than 1 pack of (b)

Since i have no prior information we are going to use variables for this equation:

1t (1 pack of test tubes) is $4 less than 1b (1 set of beakers)

so to quantify the equation, we have 8t and 12b.

if b is a number that IS quantifiable such as $5 we can easily figure out this answer.

Lets use and example that 1 set of beakers is $8, if we multiply $8 by 12 (the number of sets of beakers), we get: 96

Using the same example, if 1t is $4 less than 1b than 1t = $4. So, if we multiply $4 by 8 (the amount of packs of test tubes), we get: 32

If you take both of those numbers: 96, and 32 and you divide them you get 3. so that means that 1t = 3b

Answer = 1t = 3b

This may not be correct due to the little information that i got however i hope that, that works out for you :)
