Mathematics

Rudik [331]3 years ago
3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

DE = 8x - 13

EF = 5x + 17

DF = x + 21

Also,

DE = EF

which means that,

8x - 13 = 5x + 17

8x - 5x = 17 + 13

3x = 30

x = 30/3

x = 10

Now,

DE = 8x - 13 = 8×10 - 13 = 80 - 13 = 67cm

EF = 5x + 17 = 5×10 + 17 = 50 + 17 = 67cm

DF = x + 21 = 10 + 21 = 31cm

Find the probability that when 200 reservations are accepted for united flight 15, there are more passengers than seats availabl
Arlecino [84]

The solution for this problem is:

We know the problem has the following given:

Sample size of 200

X = 182

And the probability of .9005; computation: 1 - .0995 = .9005

 

So in order to get the probability:

P (x >= 182) = 1 – 0.707134 = .292866 is the probability that when 200 reservations 
are recognized, there are more passengers showing up than there 
are seats vacant.

The other solution is:

p (>= 182) = p(183) + P(184) + P(185) + ... + P(199) + P(200) = 0.292866
