The square root of 14 rounded to the nearest hundredth without using the calculator can be done this way. Follow these steps:
<span>1. Guess
2. Divide
<span>3. Average
</span></span>
GUESS.
1. Make good guess. We'll just use 2

DIVIDE.
2. Divide 14 by our guess of 2 = 7.

AVERAGE.
3. Average 7 and 2: (7+2)/2 = 4.5

Here, we repeat step 2 using 7 as our new guess, 4.5
2. 14/4.5 = 3.1
3. (3.1 + 4.5)/2 = 3.8
<span>
2. 14/3.8 = 3.7
3. (3.7 + 3.3)/2 = 3.5

2. 14/3.5 = 4
3. (3.5 + 4)/2 = 3.75

2. 14/3.75 = 3.7
3. (3.75 + 3.7)/2 = 3.725

so on and so forth until the pattern remains in 3.7</span>

AMERICAN AIRLINES HAS A POLICY OF BOOKING AS MANY AS 15 PEOPLE ON AN AIRPLANE THAT CAN SEAT ONLY 14. (PAST STUDIES HAVE REVEALED

Blizzard [7]

Using the binomial distribution, there is a 0.0874 = 8.74% probability that not enough seats will be available.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.

n is the number of trials.

p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

For this problem, the values of the parameters are given by:

n = 15, p = 0.85.

The probability that not enough seats will be available is P(X = 15), as the only outcome in which not enough seats will be available is when all 15 people who bought the ticket show up, hence:

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 15) = C_{15,15}.(0.85)^{15}.(0.15)^{0} = 0.0874$

0.0874 = 8.74% probability that not enough seats will be available.
