An airline estimates that 80% of passengers who reserve the tickets actually show up for the flights. Based on this information, it has to decide how many tickets it will sell for each flight, which is typically more than the number of seats actually available. In the economy section of a particular aircraft, 200 seats are available. The airline sells 225 seats. What is the probability that more passengers will show up than there are seats for?

past studies of airline industry show that only 85% of passengers who book flights actually show up for the flight. the airbus A380 the largest passenger plane holds 525 passengers. if 600 people to book a seat on the airbus what is the probability that at most 525 actually show up for the flight in this binomial situation

An airline overbooks a flight, selling more tickets for the flight than there are seats on the plane (figuring that it’s likely that some people won’t show up). The plane has 50 seats, and 60 people have booked the flight. Each person will show up for the flight with probability 0.95, independently. Find the probability that there will be enough seats for everyone who shows up for the flight.

Airlines typically overbook flights because usually several passengers don’t show up. Assume that one airline flies jets that seat 200 passengers, and with overbooking, the numbers of passengers that show up are approximately normally distributed with mean 182 and standard deviation 8. (a) What is the probability that there will not be enough seats on any given flight? Hint: How many people need to show in order for there not to be enough seats? (b)What is the 96th percentile of...
