A study found that 55% of companies had problems with absenteeism, 41% had problems with turnover and 22% had problems with both. A company is selected at random and found to have a turnover problem. What is the probability that it also has a problem with absenteeism? A = event that company has absenteeism problem B = event that company has turnover problem

Air-USA has a policy of booking as many as 22 persons on an airplane that can seat only 20. (Past studies have revealed that only 83% of the booked passengers actually arrive for the flight.) Find the probability that if Air-USA books 22 persons, not enough seats will be available. prob = %3D Is this probability low enough so that overbooking is not a real concern for passengers if you define unusual as 5% or less? Ono, it is not low enough to not be a concern Oyes, it is low enough not to be a concern What about defining unusual as 10% or less? Oyes, it is low enough not to be a concern O no, it is not low enough to not be a concern Question Help: Message instructor D Post to forum Calculator Submit Question
