A small regional carrier accepted 21 reservations for a particular flight with 20 seats. 18 reservations went to regular customers who will arrive for the flight. Each of the remaining passengers will arrive for the flight with a 57% chance, independently of each other. Hint: Use the binomial distribution with p = 0.57. (Report answers accurate to 4 decimal places.) Find the probability that overbooking occurs. Find the probability that the flight has empty seats.
