Suppose that an airline quotes a flight time of 135 minutes between two cities. Furthermore, suppose that historical flight records indicate that the actual flight time between the two cities, x, is uniformly distributed between 115 and 155 minutes. Letting the time unit be one minute, (a) Write the formula for the probability curve of x. (c) Find P(139 < x < 141). (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) (d) Find the probability that a randomly selected flight between...

An airline always overbooks if possible. A particular plane has 100 seats on a flight in which a ticket sells for $325. The airline sells 105 such tickets for the flight. (a) If the probability of an individual not showing up is 0.065, assuming independence, what is the probability that the airline can accommodate all the passengers who do show up? Show your work. (b) If the airline must return the $325 ticket price plus a penalty of $410 to...

The Airline Passenger Association studied the relationship between the number of passengers on a particular flight and the cost of the flight. It seems logical that more passengers on the flight will result in more weight and more luggage, which in turn will result in higher fuel costs. For a sample of 20 flights, the correlation between the number of passengers and total fuel cost was 0.688. State the decision rule for 0.025 significance level: H0: ρ ≤ 0; H1:...
