Step-by-step explanation:
If the scientist uses the same amount of pesticide on the two farms then the x's of the functions are the same.
Then, the combined yield of the two farms is just the yield of the first farm plus the yield of the second farm:
.
Now, since
and
,
then
we add the coefficients of the corresponding terms to get:
Which is choice A.
Answer:
(a) The probability of overbooking is 0.2135.
(b) The probability that the flight has empty seats is 0.4625.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the random variable <em>X</em> represent the number of passengers showing up for the flight.
It is provided that a small regional carrier accepted 19 reservations for a particular flight with 17 seats.
Of the 17 seats, 14 reservations went to regular customers who will arrive for the flight.
Number of reservations = 19
Regular customers = 14
Seats available = 17 - 14 = 3
Remaining reservations, n = 19 - 14 = 5
P (A remaining passenger will arrive), <em>p</em> = 0.52
The random variable <em>X</em> thus follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 5 and <em>p</em> = 0.52.
(1)
Compute the probability of overbooking as follows:
P (Overbooking occurs) = P(More than 3 shows up for the flight)
Thus, the probability of overbooking is 0.2135.
(2)
Compute the probability that the flight has empty seats as follows:
P (The flight has empty seats) = P (Less than 3 shows up for the flight)
Thus, the probability that the flight has empty seats is 0.4625.
