Assume that an airline operates a 162-seat Boeing 757 on a particular route. Historically, the probability of a passenger showing up for a flight is 94%.
1. Assume that 162 tickets were sold. Let X be the number of passengers who showed up for the flight.
a. Describe the distribution of X:
b. Find the probability that the flight is not full, in other words, find the probability that not all passengers will show up:
(Round the answer to 4 decimal places)
c. Find the expected number of passengers who show up for the flight:
(Round the answer to the whole number)
d. Find the expected number of empty seats by subtracting the from the plane capacity:
(Round the answer to the whole number)
2. Assume that the airline sells 5 more ticket(s). Let Y be the number of passengers who showed up for the flight.
a. Describe the distribution of Y:
b. Find the probability that more passengers will show up than the plane can carry:
