The value of p that makes the given equation true is equal to: B. p = -5

<u>Given the following equation:</u>

$3p - 8 = -23$

To find a value of p that makes the given equation true:

In this exercise, you're required to determine a value of p that satisfies the given equation true such that when substituted into the equation, it has a true result or outcome.

Rearranging the equation by collecting like terms, we have:

$3p - 8 = -23\\\\3p=-23+8\\\\3p=-15\\\\p=\frac{-15}{3}$

p = -5

An Airliner has a capacity for 300 passengers. If the company overbook a flight with 320 passengers, What is the probability tha

TEA [102]

Answer:

The probability is $P(X >300 ) = 0.97219$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The capacity of an Airliner is k = 300 passengers

The sample size n = 320 passengers

The probability the a randomly selected passenger shows up on to the airport

$p = 0.96$

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

$\mu = n* p$

=> $\mu = 320 * 0.96$

=> $\mu = 307.2$

Generally the standard deviation is

$\sigma = \sqrt{n * p * (1 -p ) }$

=> $\sigma = \sqrt{320 * 0.96 * (1 -0.96 ) }$

=> $\sigma =3.50$

Applying Normal approximation of binomial distribution

Generally the probability that there will not be enough seats to accommodate all passengers is mathematically represented as

$P(X > k ) = P( \frac{ X -\mu }{\sigma } > \frac{k - \mu}{\sigma } )$

Here $\frac{ X -\mu }{\sigma } =Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of \ X )$

=> $P(X >300 ) = P(Z > \frac{300 - 307.2}{3.50} )$

Now applying continuity correction we have

$P(X >300 ) = P(Z > \frac{[300+0.5] - 307.2}{3.50} )$

=> $P(X >300 ) = P(Z > \frac{[300.5] - 307.2}{3.50} )$

=> $P(X >300 ) = P(Z > -1.914 )$

From the z-table

$P(Z > -1.914 ) = 0.97219$

$P(X >300 ) = 0.97219$
